Homework for 2nd, 3rd, & 4th Grades for 1/12 to 1/16

Dear Parents,
         Progress Reports were sent home on Friday.  Please remember that these need to be signed and returned by Tues., Jan. 13th.  Review Notes for Mid Terms for both ELA and Religion were posted  on the blog over this past weekend for each grade.  They are posted by subject on two different blogs. All students should refer to their  ELA notebooks for study  and both Religion. THIRD and FOURTH graders received sheeets of Religion notes as well that were stapled into their Religion notebooks.  Second graders should refer to their Religion text book for most of their study.  Please remember that there is no school this Friday, Jan. 16th or Monday, Jan. 19th .  This gives all students time to study well for their Mid-terms which are scheduled from Jan. 21st to Jan. 23rd as well as to work on their Religion project which is due  Jan. 20th.
         Unfortunately, I had to inform all classes this week that LATE hoomework can no longer be accepted because it is happening much TOO OFTEN. For example,on a recent assignment for the second grade, only 15 out of 30 students gave in their homework on the day it was due.  Many students are getting confused about what assignments were due and when or forget to give it in when it is finally completed or give it in when assignment grades have already been entered.  Students who are absent are expected to check the homework blog and even lesson plan to see what they have missed and do the work for practice since it might appear on a test. However if they are absent, their homework assignment grade will be marked as excused.  If student is present, homework should be complete and given in on time.  Incomplete homework will be given 2 and if wrong pages are done, the grade will be 0.
          No other homework will be given this week in order to let students review welll and complete projects.
