HOMEWORK IS COMING SOON TO A HOME NEAR YOU!!!
(To Help Parents Facilitate Student Learning)
•Help set up a consistent organized place for homework to be done.
•Help your child establish either a consistent schedule for completing
homework or help him create a schedule each Sunday night that reflects
that particular week’s activities.
•Encourage, motivate, and prompt your child, but do not sit with her and do
the homework with her. The purpose of the homework is for your child to
practice and use what she has learned. If your child is consistently not able
to do the homework by herself, please contact the teacher.
•If your child is practicing a skill, ask him to tell you which steps are easy for
him, which are difficult, or how he is going to improve. If your child is doing
a project, ask him what knowledge he is applying in the project. If your child
is consistently unable to talk about the knowledge he is practicing or using,
please call the teacher.
•Although there might be exceptions, the minutes your child should spend
on homework should equal approximately 10 times her grade level (a 2nd
grader would spend 20 minutes, a 3rd grader, 30, and so on).
•When bedtime comes, please stop your child, even if he is not done.
Thanks so much for all you do to make Greenville Middle School the outstanding place it continues to be!!
