Homework Guide
The children are learning our classroom rules and expectations. Once this has been put in place the children will start to receive homework. Please refer to this guide for homework expectations and directions. As always, let us know if you have any questions.
§ All homework should be turned in on Friday in your child’s Daily Folder. Please make sure that baggie books are returned in the baggie. Make sure that these books are placed in a safe place where they will not get ruined. They are difficult to replace.
§ All written homework should be done in pencil. Pictures can be done in crayon.
§ All work must be labeled with your child’s name.
§ All work should be neatly and carefully written so that it is easily read.
§ Be sure to check over all work.
§ When writing, be sure to let your child use his/her own words. We do not expect kindergarteners to spell every word correctly. They should be using dominant sounds and some high frequency words. They should use left to right, top to bottom directionality. Eventually they will use punctuation marks and begin to use capital and lower case letters appropriately.
§ Remember to remind your child to do his/her best.
§ The homework calendar will be posted on our class website each month. Please refer to it and complete assignments daily.
Parents: Each assignment is a review of material that has been taught in class. The children should be able to do the assignments with little assistance from you. Please read the directions to your child and provide them with the materials needed to complete the activity. I expect that the writing be the children’s work. Please do not write or spell the words for your child. Our goal is to create independent and creative thinkers. Thank you for all of your support.
