Homework will be given in most of the major subject areas every day .Students will copy their assignments and other important information into their planners each day. I ask that you check and sign your child’s planner on a daily basis, as well as each individual homework assignment. By signing, you are agreeing that your child’s homework is completed and acceptable to hand in. This will also encourage students to take responsibility for their work. 

Oops Slips- Students will fill out an “Oops Slip” when a homework assignment is not done or incomplete. The teacher will determine whether the homework will be completed during recess or at home that night. After a student receives three “Oops Slips”, the next missed homework will be a yellow light. After three yellow lights, the next missed homework will result in a red light. 

Projects will be given periodically throughout the year. The projects will also be incorporated into the assessment of student progress. Ample time will be given to ensure projects are completed before they are due.

Book Reports Students will be given several book report assignments throughout the course of the school year. Students will be given a month to complete the report/project. Students will be given a guideline and rubric for these reports.
