Homework
Every week the students will be given an assignment sheet, which includes bulleted information, a list of spelling words, and a place for daily assignments. Parents/guardians will need to check these daily and sign them. If there are any questios or comments, please write them under the comment section.
Tips for Homework
- Let your child know that homework is important and valuable.
- Set a regular time each day for homework, allowing some time to unwind after school before getting started.
- Be sure your child has all essentials, such as papers, books, school notebooks, and pencils.
- Discourage distractions, including TV, during study time. Allow study breaks at intervals.
- Be available to answer questions or help quiz your child, but keep homework as his or her responsibility to complete.
Tips for Study Skills
- Encourage daily study, even if there's no homework. Reading and reviewing lessons will get your child in the habit of studying every day.
- Make sure your child keeps track of assignments and has all of the study tools needed for homework.
- Teach your child the value of being organized and keeping homework together.
- Use study aids, such as quizzes, flash cards, and reading out loud to you.
- Let your child know it's OK to ask teachers for help and that you're available too.
