Homework
In line with the Hebron BOE policy, 6th grade students will be assigned between 30-60 minutes of homework 3-5 times per week. As part of assigned work, students should be reading
for 20-30 minutes nightly, as well as reviewing their notes and reading assignments for math, science, and social studies. We work hard to develop strong study skills and timemanagement skills, so students may be able to start or even finish some assignments in school. If your child is finishing early and you would like to extend their time studying, we
recommend some of the enriching websites found below. As always, please contact your child's teacher with any questions or concerns. Thank you.
