Homework Info:

Homework is essential in 5th grade.  We give a very reasonable amount of homework, you should be doing about an hour of homework a night.  If it is taking more than an hour, please stop where you are.  Draw a line or make a note of what you were able to complete in that time.  Please have a parent write a note explaining that you worked for an hour.  We care that you try!  There should be evidence of work being attempted.  When homework is not turned in, you will receive a homework slip that is to be signed by a parent and returned the next day with the assignment.  If it becomes a consistent problem, it will lead to missing recess or other fun activities.  It is important for you to stay on top of your homework nightly, so you do not fall behind in class.


Spofford Pond School Homework Policy (copied from 2018 Handbook)
Starting in first grade, your teacher may give you homework. Your homework should take you 10 minutes to complete in first grade, 20 minutes to complete in second grade, 30 minutes to complete in third grade and so forth up to 60 minutes in sixth grade. In addition to your homework, your teacher may assign you an additional 20 minutes of reading (the same for all grade levels). If your homework is taking more or less time than this, or if you have problems with your homework, you should let your parent and teacher know.
Before you leave school each day, make sure your understand your homework assignment and what your teacher expects you to bring back to school. Your teacher may ask you to keep track of your homework assignments in a planning book.
Make sure you bring your planning book and all the materials you need to complete your homework with you when you leave school on days that you have homework.
You are responsible for completing your homework and keeping your homework materials in order. It will help to choose a space that is comfortable and quiet to work on your assignments. Complete your homework neatly and accurately on your own, and return it to your teacher on time. Make sure you allow yourself enough time to complete your long-term assignments.
