Homework assignments have several purposes that are of value to your child.The intent of assigning homework is to provide children with opportunities for added practice and reinforcement of school learning.Homework assignments are an important tool for fostering a sense of responsibility within each student, and for providing parents with the opportunity to sit down with their children and become actively involved in their children’s learning.
Homework will be assigned, beginning in October.Each month, your child will bring home a calendar and reading log in their composition notebook.The calendar will contain activities that your child may choose from.If applicable, your child will record their responses in the notebook.The reading log is a way to encourage reading.Your child will color in a shape each night for the reading they do at home.Homework activities should last no more than 10-15 minutes at the kindergarten level and may require some parental assistance (such as reading the directions).
Please return your child's homework calendar and notebook at the end of each month.
