5th Grade Homework Policy
Reading: Read 20 minutes nightly a book of their choice. If your student does not finish their work in class, they will have to complete it at home. This we will be calling completion work.
Math: Students are given time in class to finish their work. If they do not finish it in class, then it needs to be done at home. We will be calling this completion work.
Science: Once in a while we will have science homework if we cannot fit it in during class.
All work is due at the beginning of the next class. It will be collected or turned in to the correct bin. If you miss class, the work will be due a day later after return. Missing too many assignments will affect the grade. We do give a second copy, but it will be marked down by 10 points. If your student gets 100 on it, it will be in the grade book as a 90.
