Graded papers are sent home once corrected during class. We have provided a red homework folder for each child to use for this purpose. Please go over the papers with your child and check daily for notes from the school.
Each student will be provided with a planner the first day of school. The front of this planner includes the student handbook. Students will be given time daily in class to record assignments in the planner. We encourage you to check this daily. Your child's locker combination and Chrome book login information is also inside the front cover of the planner. We encourage students to keep the planner private and share it only with parents or guardians.
ELA Homework Assignments are posted daily in Progress Book for you to check. I also post an "Assignment Checklist" in Google Classroom for students. This is especially helpful in the event that your child forgets the planner in the locker or if your child is absent.
It is very important for parents to check Progress Book regularly. This will allow you to check to see if your child is completing homework as well as how they are performing on graded assignments. Fifth grade is a time when students need to begin studying more outside of school to be successful in class. They will need parental encouragement and support at home to develop good study skills. The earlier good habits are established, the greater success your child will experience.
