Homework Policies
Please remind your child of the importance of finishing homework at home and turning it in on time. The fifth grade homework policy is as follows:
Written homework will be assigned Monday - Thursday and sometimes Friday.
Students will receive their homework for the week on Monday. Homework is due on the assigned due date.
If homework is turned in late, a deduction of 50% the total number of points will be applied.
If the assignment is not turned in, a “zero” will be recorded in the grade book.
In regards to other homework, anything your child does not finish in school will be homework unless told otherwise by their teachers. There will be other larger projects that the children will be asked to complete at home in Language Arts and Writing. Due dates for larger homework projects will be written down in your child’s weekly homework logs. Please check your child's homework log DAILY and remember to sign it after all work is completed.

Daily Homework
The homework for the week will be a posted HERE. I do my best to update it daily on this site with any minor changes. However, please be aware that homework may change later in the week, according to modifications in classroom lessons. Be sure to always go to your child's homework log first, as I will have all of the students note changes there. Thank you for your support. Homework can be found in your child’s planner.
