Good evening!
I just wanted to take a moment to update everyone on my new home learning procedure. I am trying to find a way to streamline the process for both the students and myself. Last year I had the students tear out their math sheet every day and I had them write their spelling on loose leaf paper. Long story short, it was a big mess of papers, lost home work etc. and I didn't find it very effective to say the least. This year, I thought I would try housing all of the home learning in one place for each math and spelling. I originally had intended to send the math workbook and spelling notebook home daily, but I realized after one day that this is a lot of responsibility for the kids to remember both books every day and to take them back and forth from home to school...not to mention that I need to find time to check them all :) In any case, the students and I voted today to send home the workbook and notebook every MONDAY and the completed home learning for the week will be due to me every FRIDAY to be graded for completion. Hopefully, this system will work out well. I will still continue to assign daily home learning and expect students to do their assignments on a nightly basis. Leaving all of the work for Thursday evening will not promote good learning habits for their future, so please help me in encouraging them to complete home learning nightly.
Please let me know if you have any questions!
