Homework Policy and Schedule
Homework is given for the purpose of building a sense of responsibility, and is given with the understanding that little or no adult assistance is needed. If your child is having difficulty completing homework or is uncooperative, please allow me to address this with your child. Additionally if your child forgets his/her homework, they have an additional day to bring it in. I am very reasonable and allow students to make up forgotten homework.
​
*****Students are expected to read a book of choice on an appropriate level for a total of 60 -80 minutes per week. A reading log will be handed out on October 2 for students to use at home to log their own minutes.

Grade 3 Homework Schedule
2017-2018
Reading
Third Grade students are expected to read from 60 to 80 minutes per week. All students will log their minutes read on a nightly basis using a provided monthly calendar. This calendar should remain in their Home/School Binder. It will be collected at the end of each month, and a new one will be provided. The reading requirement can be achieved by reading a little each night or by reading for longer periods on some nights. If a student attends Reading Club with Ms. Morey or Mrs. Gatto, they will utilize the log that is given to them by the reading teachers.
