AR and Vocabulary Homework Expectations
*Students receive a new vocabulary list each Monday that we are at school. They are expected to have their definitions and assigned vocabulary homework ready to turn in every Wednesday. This has been our procedure since September. We have asked that students get their vocab. homework checked over by a parent or by us in the mornings or afternoons, before it is due. If you are not seeing it at home, please ask your child about this. We encourage discussion about all of the words at home. The more exposure your child is getting, the better the understand how to use and apply these words. All students get five lists per six weeks and take a cumulative test the sixth week of each grading period. All vocab. homework is a weekly daily grade.
