Third Grade Homework Policy
Homework is an important component of education. Students are responsible for making homework a priority: working in a quiet, distraction-free, well-lit, well supplied place. Parents please motivate your child and guide them through their homework when necessary. If they are having trouble its important for us to know, so please put a note in their Agenda Book. Third graders will be required to complete 20-30 minutes of homework a night. In addition to this daily homework, at least 15 minutes of reading is also required. Please keep in mind that if your child is exceeding 60 minutes of homework, please stop them and include a note in your child’s Agenda Book. We practiced working on our homework for the first two weeks of school. It is our hope that the students will continue to use the study skills we talked about at school at home.
