Homework
Normally our policy concerning homework would be limited to completing
daily work from class. The amount of time required will vary according to
individual student needs and their respective grades and ages.
Homework may take the form of assignments, research study,
note completion, projects or simply reading for enjoyment. We ask your
assistance in respect as the need arises.
Grade 1 & 2
Children should participate in previously outlined activities, or perhaps
review numbers, reading vocabulary, etc., for very limited time. Your child's
teacher will have specific suggestions, should you ask, or should the situation
be unusual.
Grade 3
Fifteen minutes daily is recommended for completion of assigned work and
for study of spelling, math, or vocabulary.
Grade 4,5,6
Thirty minutes daily is recommended. In addition to suggested
activities, pupils are to definitely study notes, math, and vocabulary. The
building of good study habits is greatly assisted by daily application.
Grade 7 & 8
Pupils of grades seven and eight will have homework most days. Adequate
advance notice is always given for tests, and for completion of research
projects. Sixty minutes of homework daily is recommended for continued academic
success. |
