Student Planners Students’ planners will be filled out daily

when students arrive in class. The planner is a summary of the

students’ daily activities and list homework.

I use the planner as a communication tool between school and home. Please feel free to write any notes in planner.

Homework I will assign about 20-30 minutes of homework most

nights (I try not to assign on homework Wednesdays). Homework is due the next day unless otherwise noted. Please allow your child to attempt their homework

independently at first and then support them if needed. I will always encourage you to have your child read aloud

to you from a book of their choice. Reading out loud is one of the best ways to help a child develop their independent reading skills and a love of reading.
