Reminders:
1. These are a few reminders
concerning homework and classwork:
A. All work must be completed in
blue or black ink (other colors will not be accepted).
B. If the assignment states
that looseleaf is to be used, no other types of paper will be accepted (paper
ripped out of notebooks or legal pads is unacceptable.
C. Homework must be handed in on
the day due, unless I receive a not from a parent explaining why you did not
complete your HW. This will only be accepted if there is an emergency at
home (not because you were too tired or that you had too much
other HW).
D. Homework and classwork must be
neat. Work that is sloppy or illegible will not be accepted.
E. Remember to cover the Reading
Workbook. If the cover is ripped, please put cardboard or some
type of backing to reinforce it. Your child is responsible for all books that
belong to the school.
