Procedures
Homework will be given every day except on Fridays and must be turned in every morning. Students will be made aware of any changes to our homework routine. (Homework must always be done in pencil!)
Make-up Work: Students will have the opportunity to make up class work missed due to an excused absence. The student will have 2 days from their return date to turn in their work without penalty. After that, the late work policy will be applied. It will be the student's responsibility to ask for any missing work.
Late Work: At my discretion depending on the reason, classwork may be turned in up to one day late. Failure to turn in the work on the following day, it will no longer be accepted and the student will receive a grade of zero for that assignment.

- Math homework will either be a single worksheet, or pages out of the student's math workbook. The homework will cover the concepts we learned in class that day. Students should also practice their multiplication facts daily, until they are able to recall them automatically.
- Reading homework will consist of weekly Scholastic Reader and/or poem. For the poem, students will use their Poetry reference sheet located in their Homework Binder to identify the Form, Structure and Elements of poetry. For any literary text assigned, students will be expected to respond to comprehension questions, write book reviews or book reports including on school library books. Writing assignments, such as, book reviews and book reports will be graded by rubrics and must be turned in every Friday.
