Homework Policy media type="custom" key="6544391" media type="custom" key="6963223" align="center"

Homework is a review of what was learned during the school day. It is assigned and must be completed daily. Three incomplete homework assignments will result in a lowered grade. Students will be allowed to make up any missed homework’s within a week’s time. Parents must sign their child’s agenda each night to assure that their child has completed all of the required homework for the night. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to e-mail me at allacherny@gmail.com. __Homework Policy __ Homework is an important part in your child’s learning and will be given every day. If for some reason it cannot be done, please send me a note. Please, check and sign your child’s homework every night. (The assignments should be done by children with adult supervision.) Please check your child’s book bag daily for papers to prevent build up. The Homework Folder is very important. It is the school-home link and it will be sent home everyday. Please check it for notes, different forms, book orders, etc. Any correspondence you have for us can be placed in the folder as well. Please remember, if any money is sent to school for trips, books, pictures, etc., the money should be placed in a sealed envelope with your child’s name on it and indicating the amount enclosed. Also, if school notes are sent home and need to be signed, I would appreciate their quick return. __Absences __  If your child is absent, he/she must present an absence note/doctor’s note upon returning to school. If your child will be absent for an extended period of time please call/visit the school.  //**__ Homework # 62: December 13, 2010 __**//. 1. Write sentences with Spelling Words 1-7. 2.
