Second Grade...

* is used to help teach your child responsibility.

* will ALWAYS be practice or review of a skill previously taught in the classroom.

* should not take your child longer than 30 minutes total each night. If homework is taking your child longer, please let me know so that we can discuss the problem.

* will be assigned each day, except for Wednesday and Friday, UNLESS your child is making up work from an absence. Reading is required on Wednesday night and over the weekend (20 minutes minimum).

* should include studying spelling words each night.

*includes a practice math page every other night (front and back).

*includes reading for a minimum of 20 minutes each night (100 minutes per week). A monthly reading log will be sent home at the beginning of each month. After reading, students should record required information on the reading log. All reading logs need to be turned in to Mrs. Vensko on the last school day of the month and will be reflected in your child's reading grade. Please keep this reading log in your child's HOBO book (homework section), as I check these often.

H.O.B.O. (homework section).
