  8. Homework Math - journal page (JP) and study link (SL) Reading - at least 20 minutes Occasional homework in the other content areas Other work that is not completed during the school day Please note: We always have homework time built into our day. When students use time well, they can often complete work during the day.

  9. Missing, Late, or Incomplete Homework Fourth Grade Policy: Students will miss extra morning recess to complete homework that is incomplete. If finished work was left at home they will still miss recess. No calls home We want to work on good habits and consequences that will encourage learning from mistakes. If a student is missing recess on a regular basis we will contact you directly and try to work on a plan to improve the situation.
