Homework Policy
1) 6th grade students are expected to complete all assigned homework and return it on the due date. All daily assignments will be due the following class day.
2) Turning all assigned homework in on time during the week will result in a reward of Fun Friday. Fun Friday is 10-15 min of supervised free time outside and the end on each week.
3) Not returning homework on the due date will result in no Fun Friday and 10% of the grade will be taken off each day the assignment is late. Students who cannot participate in Fun Friday will sit inside supervised and complete missing assignments.
4) Students who are absent will be given the number of days they are absent to make-up missed homework. Ex. If a student is absent for 2 days they have the following 2 days to finish assignments INCLUDING the regular daily assignments.
I want students to be a successful in my class and in their total education! If there is a problem I am here to help!
