Also, look at the conduct sheet so you can discuss your child’s choices at home. *Please initial daily the conduct sheet so we know you saw your child’s behavior!

  5. Homework/Spelling: • Each student will bring home a homework folder on Mondays. It will contain your student’s homework for the week. • Reading homework is a packet that is due on Friday. There is 20 minutes of reading a night, 2 spelling jobs and cursive practice. When we get closer to STAAR the cursive will be replaced by reading passages. • Math homework is a packet that is due on Friday. The packet will contain only math. • Spelling lists will be distributed on Mondays. There will be 2 spelling jobs your child is required to complete as part of their homework. The jobs may change as new skills are taught, so please look at the bottom of the spelling lists. Spelling tests will be given on Fridays and will count towards 10% of the Language grade. • Vocabulary terms will be given out for practice. Students can find quizzes on Ms. King’s website. Weekly quizzes will be given over terms. • *Homework is an important part of 3rd grade. Please make sure your child is completing their homework weekly.

  6. Conduct and work habits: • Conduct and work habits are given a letter grade on your child’s report card. Each infraction your child receives will be noted daily in their conduct folder with an explanation why he or she was given the mark. Please take the time to discuss with your child why good behavior and work habits are important. • Conduct Rules:Work Habit Rules: • 1. Follow directions 9.

If your child is not completing their work, they will go to study hall until they have completed all their assignments (this includes homework). Also, if they need to correct failing grades the teacher will re-teach the skill and they will have one opportunity to pull the grade up to a maximum score of 70%. They may also be assigned study hall to complete work they missed when they were absent. It is not a punishment, but an opportunity to get caught up and avoid zeroes in the gradebook.
