HOMEWORK
We believe children need a good night’s
sleep! We limit homework to one hour
per school day. This includes 30 minutes
of reading and 30 minutes of homework
from other subjects. Homework may be
assigned for the following reasons:
1.
Absence: to make up work missed
during an excused absence.
2.
Completion: work was not
completed at school for which time
has been given to do so in class.
3.
Extension: provide students with
opportunities to transfer specific skills
or concepts to new situations.
4.
Practice: to help students master
specific skills which have been
presented in class.
5.
Preparation: to help students
prepare for the next step in a unit or
study for a quiz or test.
Team Activities
Team activities are held the last
Thursday of each month to
celebrate student birthdays. In
lieu of bringing a treat, we ask
for a $3.00 donation for teachers
to purchase birthday treats.
