Check NIGHTLY for Homework Assignments.
typical homework tasks:Nightly reading (20+ min/night)
Record choice reading on Biblionasium. Word work practice on SpellingCity -or- monthly spelling choice menu (FUN!) Math practice on ALEKS or homework page. Additional assignments may be made based on season, need, etc. Such changes will be noted on the homework calendar above. ClassDojo points (awarded or deducted) are how we will track homework responsibility. I say responsibility PURPOSELY instead of completion. This is because I understand that things come up, schedules get tight, and tech problems arise. In typical circumstances, homework is expected to be completed and Mrs. Petlak is able to track home practice on all three digital sites. However, if something comes up, the MOST IMPORTANT task is for your child to somehow notify me (via email and/or homework hotline, etc.). Usually I can help them with the issue and/or at least be notified ahead of time if they forget something at school, have a late practice, etc. It's this type of self-responsibility that is truly important. |
Enrichment Opportunities:If you want additional homework or ways to challenge your child at home, we have some great, open-ended, project-based, self-paced opportunities for you and your child!
I am in the process of creating an engaging, self-directed student home enrichment portal. This site will house links to awesome 4th grade webquests, options for independent projects at home, forms to submit suggestions for enrichment at home, and more. Until I complete the site, take a sneak peek at one example of student-directed home enrichment HERE. This US regions webquest ties to our curriculum and integrates NUMEROUS learning standards across all subject areas. Students will proceed at their own pace and complete the tasks as directed by the webquest. When completed, I will meet with the student at school to review what they have achieved and discuss home extensions. If your child thinks of a great home exploration on their own, they will be able to fill out a form on the enrichment page to submit their proposal to me & proceed! |
