Home. Marks' 5th Grade SuperStars. Miss Cantillon's Fifth Grade. Parent Corner. Miss Cantillon's Homework Policy Homework is assigned five times per week. Students are responsible for recording their homework assignments in their homework planner. On Mondays, we write down our homework for the week, and I initial their planners once it is all copied. As each assignment is completed, they should place a mark in the box next to the assignment in their planners.

I check to make sure homework has been turned in daily and that students have had their planners signed by an adult weekly. Parents are encouraged to discuss homework assignments with their children as this will foster a deeper understanding of the material. Time spent on homework will vary according to the student.

Challenge homework is offered regularly. If a student does not have his or her homework in class on the due date, a "late homework slip" will be sent home to be signed. Parents often ask how they can help their child(ren) with their homework. Back to Top Parent & Teacher Communication Absences Religion. Calendar.

It also helps to watch a video because you can quickly decide how you need to modify an idea to meet your students' needs. These are all 3 - 20 minute videos on teaching topics to help you out. They can all be downloaded to your computer through iTunes if you search "elementary teacher resources" or you can watch them at the links below.
