• Homework Policy   
    Each night homework should take approximately 30 minutes to complete. The following is a general outline for daily homework assignments:

    Math
    * A math review sheet will go home nightly. This is a review of that day's lesson and should take about 5-10 minutes.   It is imperative that math facts are practiced nightly even if only for a few minutes.

    Spelling
    * Spelling homework will be given nightly.   Our new reading series handles spelling in a different way than you may be used to.  The children will not necessarily be assigned a new spelling list every week.  The spelling aligns with our phonics lesson.  I will be using the Remind app and the agenda to communicate when new lists are given and when tests will be, therefore you cannot count on a test every Friday.  The website www.spellingcity.com/kcollins221 also has each spelling list in order from the bottom up, in case of any absences.  your child has been given a "menu" of spelling activities to choose from for homework each night until the test is given.


    Reading
    * Reading homework is 20 minutes of independent reading nightly.

    * There is no homework assigned on weekends with the exception of studying if there is an upcoming test. 

    * I usually give at least one week's notice for any major Science or Social Studies test and a review guide is provided.
