Homework is a very worthwhile part of your child's day and it is very
important to his or her success in school. We use it as a way to
review and practice important skills learned in the classroom.

Homework encourages responsibility and should not be viewed as a
punishment but as a way to help your child succeed in school. One
way to teach responsibility is by expecting your child to complete
homework.

Homework is normally assigned Monday - Thursday. I usually
do not assign homework on Fridays. It should take students no
more than 15 to 20 minutes to complete each night,

Parents, you are the key to making
homework a positive experience for your
child.

Some ways parents can help their
child with homework are:

Have a specific time each day to complete homework. Make sure it is in a quiet, comfortable, well-lit place. Make sure there are no distractions (music playing, TV blaring. Help your child, but do not do their homework for them.
