Fourth Grade Homework Policy

Fourth grade homework will usually consist of two (2) different subjects.  Sometimes a student will need to complete work not finished in class, for example, daily math sheets.
Homework is written in the planner each day by the student.  Please check their planner daily and initial when homework assignments have been completed.
Spelling tests are given every Wednesday.  Pretests are given on Tuesday.  Spelling should be studied every night.  Students, along with their parent’s approval, may choose a different method each night.  Spellingcity.com is just one of many websites that offer variety for practicing spelling words.  I have also created a list of Spelling Homework Ideas from which one may be chosen, each night.
For science and history, students will be studying comprehension check questions, terms to remember and anything in bold print.  Study guides will be sent home for students to study for tests.

If a student does not complete their homework, they may be required to take part of their recess and complete the assignment.
