Homework Assignments:
Reading:
We encourage students to read at home (20 - 30 minutes a day). Reading logs will not be mandatory this year. As a 5th grade team, we want students to enjoy reading and not worry about filling out a reading log. Research has shown that students who do read at home are more fluent readers.
Math:
We usually will have a math worksheet in our homework packet for additional practice of math concepts. Students should be able to do this on their own. If they don't have a math sheet to complete, they should practice their math facts.
