Fantastic Four students have homework Monday through Thursday. The Beaverton School District expectation for homework in 4th grade is 40 min. per night.
Daily homework includes reading 20 minutes and and a math assignment.
Weekly assignments are two-fold:
1. Every Thursday an assignment will be sent home that is due the following Thursday. It may include a POW (problem of the week), a writing assignment, and possibly an assignment related to science, social studies, health or art.
2. Every Friday your child will bring home the Friday reflection journal and weekly communication slip (pink sheet). Both need to be read and signed by a parent. The child should return these on Monday.
If your student isn't able to complete a homework assignment, please send a note. Additionally, if the assigned homework is regularly taking longer than 40 minutes, please let me know.
