Homework should supplement and reinforce what has
been taught in the classroom.
Some pupils may need added practice in
basic skills taught. For other pupils, homework is a means for
enriching school activities started in class. Pupils who have fallen
behind may be in need of remedial, supplementary wok in order to improve
their achievement.
It is the objective of the school staff to assign homework in reasonable
amounts and with adequate instructions, not as "busy"
work. Parents can support this activity greatly by providing an
adequate place for study, in showing interest, and through encouraging the
child to assume the responsibility of completing homework. We
strongly urge parents to support this aspect of the school program. |
