Please read below the 3rd Grade homework procedure for losing/not turning in homework starting second semester.
ü Homework for the week will be handed out each Monday and will be due Friday of that week. (Note: Absent students may turn in assignments the next day he/she is present, with no penalty.)
ü Only one additional copy of homework will be given out, if the original copy is lost. However, on that second copy of homework 15 points will be deducted from their grade.
ü If a third copy of homework is needed, the student will sit in recess that Friday to complete the missing assignment. He/she will sit in recess until the missing assignment is completed.
ü This semester student’s will be graded on their homework based on correctness not just on completion.
This homework policy is to help students learn responsibility, as well as to help maintain good grades. We are hoping this will increase grades and student responsibility.
As always if you have any questions or concerns, please call us at our planning: 9:40- 10:30 or after 3:00 at 432-205
