Homework

Every Monday, students will receive their homework packet. The items in the homework packet are: Spelling Words, Spelling Word activities, Math Worksheets, and a Reading Log. Students are expected to read for 20 minutes every night of the week.  Parents, please sign the reading log every night that your child completely fills it out. The math and reading log are due on Friday, spelling activities are due on Tues, Weds, & Thurs. On Fridays, students who finished all their homework and brought it to school will get to participate in the weekly reward. This includes a movie for an hour or games, and a snack.  Students who did not turn in their work will finish it during this hour and will not participate in the reward.
