Homework


 * Third Grade Homework Policy:** Homework should include 20+ minutes of reading and 10 minutes of other exercises. Please monitor that your child is not spending more than 30 minutes on homework each night. It is important that your child is living a healthy and well balanced life that includes playing and interacting with family and friends--not spending hours on independent work each night.


 * Monitoring Homework:** To keep you, your parents, and I all on the same page regarding your homework and class work, each of you are to keep an achievement tracker. On the tracking sheet you will record your daily class work and homework. Then your teachers will fill in your achievement grade on the sheet when the work has been returned. This will help you, your parents, and your teachers know how you are keeping up with your school work.
 * ---**Here is a blank achievement tracker: [[file:Assignment Tracker.doc]] Parents please sign this every Friday to confirm that you have seen the tracker. I will sign the tracker if your child has completed everything on Friday and has had the opportunity to play. If work is not complete--you will see that by the missing grades and by my signature NOT being on the page.

Please write a note to the teacher if you have any questions or concerns about the homework.
