Homework
**Children should be read to every night for about 15 minutes.
** Homework packets will be sent home weekly and need to be returned within the week.
** Book pouches will start in the Fall. This classroom book should be practiced with your child and returned the next day.
** Unfinished class work will be sent home to be completed as homework.
We realize that children are involved in activities outside of school and it is very important to have family time in the evenings. Therefore, we are not big believers in a lot of homework at this age. They have many years of homework throughout their school life. We also believe that homework is not meant to be challenging. It is meant to practice skills that we have learned in class. If you would like to challenge your child beyond what is in the homework, there are wonderful resources out there at stores such as Lakeshore Learning. If you need more options, feel free to contact us.
