FAQFrequently Asked Questions:
Do you have homework on the weekend? NO! I do not assign homework on the weekend, but I am aware that at times life gets busy during the week, and do not mind at all if you decide to have your child complete the week's homework over the weekend. As for weekend reading, I would never discourage a child taking advantage of extra time to get lots of punches! Do you go over the homework in school? No. Homework is reinforcement practice of what we are learning in school. It is a tool designed to help you work with your child and discover their weaknesses and strengths. The homework should have been checked by the parents before it was returned. So everyone should have the correct answers anyway. I do however glance at the work to make sure it is completed, and if not I usually indicate I noticed it was missing with a stamp that says "Incomplete." Where do I sign for my child's homework? In the past I have had parents sign by their child's writing assignments in the HOGs. However, with the evolving coversheet for the homework that is where I would like you to sign. I do like it when the parents also sign in the HOG by their child's writing. It is a nice way to show them that you read what they wrote- like an autograph of sorts. I get them many places, but have found that Wal-Mart carries huge bags of them for only $1.97. Thank you in advance if you would like to send some in! The children always love it when I give away the gems they bring in that their parents bought! How long have you been at Tallwood Elementary?
