Homework+Policy+-+Ashley

The purpose of homework is to reinforce skills learned in class. HW is given Mon-Thurs for 30-45 minutes in addition to reading for at least 20 minutes. There are also long-term projects. Homework is announced and recorded every day together. Students are responsible for copying assignments down each day in their planner. Directions for HW are thoroughly covered in class and students are reminded several times of what to put in his/her backpack. Homework is not complete until it is turned in to me.

Pink Slips- students are given these slips when they do not turn in an assignment. After three missed homework assignments in any one subject, Mrs. Wood will send a letter home to be signed and returned.

Monthly Reading Logs: These logs keeps track of reading at home and must be turned in the last day of every month. This is a way to check in with their independent reading.
