September Reading Homework

Parents/Guardians must initial each night your child reads. Your child must read a minimum of 20 minutes a day five days a week. This log will be turned in and will be taken for a grade at the end of the month. Homework factors into PBIS celebrations at the end of each month. Feel free to print an additional copy below should your child misplace the original.

Math Homework Policy

Math Homework Policy

Dear Parents,

This year we are lucky to have agendas/planners . We will be using the agendas to keep track of homework and other important events.  I am asking that you initial or sign your name in the Math box if your child does homework.  Fifth graders need to be fluent in multiplication and division facts through twelves.   Fifteen to twenty minutes a day practice at home will help with fluency. They can use flash cards to practice math facts.  I also have a protopage where students can find learning games to practice what we learn in class.  You can find it by searching MsButlerRoosevelt.  Reflex Math is another resource to help students.  If you have any questions please call, email or send a note in the Friday Folder. 

Thanks,

Christine Butler
