  16. Homework

  17. Homework • Students will now be using a BEE binder to carry their agendas, spelling spirals, notes from home and school and homework in. They will also have pockets of resources to use at home to help with homework. These binders go back and forth from home and school every day. • Students will write homework down in their agendas every day. Please check their agenda to know which assignments they should be working on at home. Agendas will travel back and forth between home and school in the BEE binder. • Each student has a spelling spiral that they use to write their spelling words in. They bring this back and forth from home and school in their BEE binder.

  18. Homework • Students read 20 minutes (or listen to someone read to them) nightly and record the name of the book in their reading log. • Students will practice spelling words for the week using the strategy written in their agenda.
