About Homework • Homework is given nightly • Students will have literacy & math assignments every night • Students must read for 30 minutes each night • Students read from their book baggie books assigned during their literacy period • The reading chart must be marked every night, but will only be checked and collected at the end of each month. A numerical grade will be entered on Engrade to reflect the number of days your child read for the month. (If the children lose the chart they must notify the teacher immediately!) • If homework is too difficult for your child or is taking your child too long to complete, set up a meeting with the teacher to discuss strategies and/or accommodations that can be made. • Vacation homework will be optional with the exception of reading (no written responses required).
