Making choices
Please note that student daily practice should include weekly spelling rules/words, previous unit reading text and calendar (sent home at the end of each unit), 20 minutes of reading, and math chapter packet that comes home the day we start a new chapter.
Homework PRACTICE packets are NOT expected to be returned to school. These are resources provided to you for reinforcement of skills at home. We trust you will use them to help your student practice for assessments given at school. HOWEVER, any work not completed in class due to an absence, not working in a timely manner or playing around will be sent home with a note to complete and return.
