What’s the Point of Homework? • Practice & build on what’s been taught in class • Complete unfinished class work • Prepare for upcoming lessons • Practice responsibility and develop good study habits • How Much Homework Will Students Have? • Homework may be assigned any day. Students may have some time in-class time to work on homework. Students should spend approximately 30-45 minutes most nights to complete homework. This might vary when studying for tests or working on long-term projects. I try to give approximately one-week notice for all major tests. Students should see me before leaving for the day if they need help with homework, if possible. • How Will Students Know What the Homework Is? • Homework is written on the board every day. Students will have time throughout the day to write assignments in their agenda books. All assignments are reviewed before students are dismissed, and the class has the opportunity to ask questions and clarify assignments at that time. Independent reading is an ongoing assignment. • What Happens to Homework? • It highly benefits the student to complete all homework to the best of his or her ability and turn it in on time. I review all homework assignments that are turned in. Using the results of the homework, I adjust instruction accordingly.I will return student work in a timely manner. Once we go over homework, students should file homework in the appropriate folder or binder. • What If a Student Doesn’t Do Homework? • The most obvious effect of not doing or turning in homework is lower grades. Students also risk loss of privileges when not completing and turning in homework. When students do not complete homework, it also makes it difficult for me to determine if they understand the material. Please see the class grading policy on late work and homework that is not turned in.
