Daily Homework Assignments:
It is very important that students get into the habit of recording their homework assignments in their homework agendas daily. They are given five minutes at the end of each class to copy down homework from the whiteboard.

Other Important Information:
Reading Daily and Reading Logs
It is very important that our students read every day. To help them accomplish this, they are expected to read for 25-30 minutes each night, fill out their reading logs, and have them signed by an adult in the family. These reading logs will be discussed during parent/teacher conferences and count as part of their homework grade for each quarter. Reading logs, as well as reader’s notebooks, should be taken home and returned daily.

Additional reading logs can be found here: Reading Log

Reader’s and Writer’s Notebooks
Each student is required to have two 5 subject spiral notebooks for language arts. On the cover of one it should have their name and “Reader’s Notebook” written on it, and on the other notebook it should have their name and “Writer’s Notebook” written on it. They will be used to take notes during daily lessons.

These notebooks will be checked routinely and count as part of your student’s participation grade. They will also be a great way for you to look through and get a better sense of what it is they’re learning. So be sure to sit down with your student and page through their Reader’s Notebook with them every once in a while and have them explain some of the things they’re doing or have done in language arts.

Additional Assignments
In addition to reading for 25-30 minutes every night and filling out their reading logs, on most days students will have a reading/writing assignment that connects to the lesson we learned that day. Often times these assignments will be completed in either their Reader’s Notebook or their Writer’s Notebook.
