Second Grade has decided to not assign homework this year. I know this might be a huge difference for some. However, research proves that homework does not have any benefit for the student. Since the school day has been extended this year, students will now have study hall the last twenty to thirty minutes of school. At this time, students will be able to receive extra practice, and additional guidance or enrichment from the teacher.
Students will still be required to keep a reading log at home. Let your student practice reading out loud to improve their fluency. If you are reading with them, ask them questions to check for their comprehension!
A list of additional educational activities will be sent home the first week of school. These activities can happen anywhere and at any time. Engage your student!
