​

Language Arts Homework will include:

Study for Spelling Test

• Words will be handed out the week before the test. Students will have a week to study in whatever way works best for them. Some study suggestions will be kept in homework folders, but nothing needs turned into the teacher.

Read for at least 20 minutes

• ​This is the most important homework of all. Research shows that students who read more achieve more. There will be no reading log to complete, we just want students to read for enjoyment and we want them to choose a book that they want to read. 
  
  

*Bonus*

• There will be a weekly reading challenge to go along with reading for 20 minutes. The challenge will change each week and it is completely optional. 
• Istation will also be encouraged at home, but it is optional. We will give out class rewards to the Top 5 Istation users among the team each week. 

30 BOOK CHALLENGE

• This will be passed out at the beginning of the year. It is a great way for students to track the books that they complete and it also encourages exploration of different genres. It will be due at the end of the year, but can always be turned in early when completed! :)
