Homework is an important part of continuing to practice the skills learned in the classroom. My biggest goal is that each student learns the value of doing the work of readers and writers. Students should be reading and writing as much as possible outside of the school day.
Students will be working towards reading goals for homework. I will meet with each student to help them select an appropriate goal based on their current reading habits. This might include a number of minutes, a certain number of books, using a particular strategy, reading books from a certain series, books that have won a literary award, etc.
*The homework will begin in September and is always due on Monday. Each week, students should be documenting their progress towards the goal.*
