Daily Assignments and Home Learning

                   Listed below are the planned assignments for the week.  Some of them will be completed in class each day.  If an assignment wasn’t finished at school, it should be completed as homework.  Please discuss each assignment with your child to determine if it needs to be finished at home and returned to class the next day.  This is also a good way to see what your child has missed in the case of being absent.  Many of the assignments will be completed in class, but from time to time, an assignment may need to be completed or reviewed as home learning practice.  The majority of home learning is to study academic vocabulary in each subject and to read about 20 minutes to an adult each night.
