SCHOOL YEAR 2017-2018 GRADE HOMEWORK POLICY Why do I assign homework? In my opinion, homework is a valuable part of each student’s learning experience. Through homework, responsibility is learned, skills are reinforced, and the importance of school is stressed. When will homework be assigned? Homework will be assigned each day before students leave class, to be returned on the next school day morning. What are your child’s homework responsibilities? I expect each child to do their best job on each homework assignment. I expect homework to be neat and done in pencil. I expect homework to be completely finished by class time the following school day morning. What will happen if assignments are not completed? If students choose not to do their homework, they will lose certain classroom privileges. After three (3) homework assignments have not been turned in, or are turned in incomplete, the parent will be contacted and a homework contract will be set up. What about legitimate excuses for not completing a homework assignment? If there is a legitimate reason why a student is unable to complete the assignment, simply write a note to me explaining the reason why in the Communication log. What are a parent’s homework responsibilities? Parents are the key to making homework a positive experience for their children. Therefore, I ask that parents make homework a top priority at home, provide necessary supplies and a quiet homework environment, set aside time every day when homework is to be done, provide praise and support, not allow children to avoid doing their homework, and contact me if a problem arises. Please read and discuss this homework policy with your child(ren). Together, we can do this! Your 5th Grade Teachers: Mrs. Limes-E103, Mr. Cruz-E104, Mrs. Tibudan-E105 and Mrs. Conner-E106 SCHOOL MISSION: To give our students the opportunity to learn, promote academic and social skills, and provide support to become responsible and productive citizens.
