HOMEWORK INFORMATION for Lila Sanchez’ Second Grade Class
 
SPELLING TEST
The spelling words will go home on Mondays. The words come from the district adopted spelling series. There will also be two sentences. The sentences will help to reinforce capitalization and punctuation. The spelling test will be given on Fridays. With the exception of not having school on a Friday, there will be NO spelling for that week. The spelling test will be graded based on 100%. The progress report card will reflect the grade over a nine week period.
 
HOMEWORK WORKSHEETS
There will be homework sheets that go home daily and are due the following morning. The homework sheets will relate to what we are studying in class. The homework will be further practice and some enrichment in reading, math or science. The work sheets should only take your child 10 – 15 minutes. You will need to sit and help your child with reading the directions, writing and spelling. It is very important to remember that the child needs to do the homework, not the parent. The homework is a way to start forming strong study habits for future education: high school and college. The work sheets will not be graded on a percent, but rather with a check mark. Homework not turned in will be a zero. There is also a grade on the progress reports card for homework assignments.

AGENDAS
The agendas or  the nightly assignment folders will be filled out by the students every day.  The agenda will have the homework assignments for that day and other information. The first two lines on each day will be reserved for behavior comments. Parents need to initial the agenda date box  every night. The agenda is a big part of our communication.
