Homework has a definite place in the educational process. It is an
extension of the learning experience children have during the instructional
day. Homework is designed to aid the students in achieving and reinforcing
classroom goals, and it will not be used to punish or to keep students busy.
All homework assigned will have a purpose to reinforce a skill already taught
or it will be used in class the next day.
Homework is an important part of your child's school experience.
Supporting good work habits requires a joint effort between student, parent,
and teacher. Often, there will be time given for students to work on homework
in class. I will support your child and encourage good work habits at school.
Your child will greatly benefit from your support and encouragement at home.
If for any reason, a student returns to school without homework, if you
would simply send a note explaining the reason and I will determine if more
time will be allowed. This procedure will help in teaching my students to be
responsible and accountable for what is expected. However, I undersatnd that
some situations cannot be helped and I will handle those accordingly.
