This year, our homework completion rate is over 90%! This is great news because homework is an integral part of the learning process in this class. As discussed in the syllabus (the following was addressed to students):
We’ll use homework for many purposes. It will be used to practice new concepts and skills. It will be used to explore previously unseen topics. And it will give you a chance to apply your knowledge to new situations.
Each day, we'll check homework in class. I will provide solutions, and you can ask questions. This process of getting feedback and asking questions is vital to your learning!
Because HW is so important to the learning process, I've received some feedback from parents that they want to be informed if their son or daughter did not complete the daily homework. In this spirit, I'm going to start emailing parents each day that their son or daughter did not complete the HW.
Homework assignments are always available online via the "daily activities, notes, and homework" link in the "class links" box on the right side of the page. Although it is much better for students to complete the HW on time, it is better to complete it late than to not complete it at all.
