December 2, 2011 Dear Parents or Guardians, Now that we have completed the first trimester of the 2010/2011 school year, itʼs a perfect time to reflect on your childʼs homework habits and make changes as needed. I hope the following homework guidelines and suggestions will provide more success in school and less stress at home! Homework is assigned to reinforce concepts learned at school and to provide additional practice of skills. In addition, it encourages responsibility, organization, and time management. The following time frames serve as guidelines for the amount of time your child(ren) should spend on homework each night: Kindergarten and First Grade-approximately 10 minutes Second Grade-approximately 20 minutes Third and Fourth Grade-approximately 30 minutes To help homework time be productive itʼs important to establish good homework habits. Start by helping your child get organized: Use a calendar and write in due dates and test dates together. Use assignment notebooks provided to 3rd and 4th graders and check them off when they are finished. Provide a consistent place and time to do homework. Discuss homework assignments with your child before they get started. For example, when will you study for your spelling test? What supplies will you need for your project? Check on your child's progress by asking to look over math problems or offering to test him/her on spelling words. If your child is having difficulties completing their homework, make sure he/she understands the homework instructions by reviewing them together. Suggest ways to make the work easier to finish. Think of yourself as a coach, guiding and cheering them on from the sidelines. Encourage them to do their best. If they continue to have trouble with instructions and are spending too much time on homework, contact their teacher. Letʼs work together to make the time spent on homework a success! Sincerely, Vince Murray Prairieview School 103 E. Belvidere Rd., Hainesville, IL 60030 ‐ Phone (847) 543‐4230 ‐ Fax (847) 543‐4125 Vince Murray, Principal Est. 2002

2 de diciembre de 2011 Estimados Padres o Encargados, Ahora que hemos completado el primer trimestre del año escolar 2010/2011, es un buen momento para reflexionar en los hábitos de tarea de su niño y hacer cambios como sea necesario. ¡Espero las pautas de tarea siguientes y las sugerencias proporcionen más éxito en la escuela y menos tensión en casa! La tarea se le asigna a los estudiantes para que refuerce conceptos aprendidos en la escuela y proporcione la práctica adicional de habilidades. Además, esto anima la responsabilidad, la organización, y la dirección de tiempo. Las siguientes pautas sirven como modelos para guiar la cantidad de tiempo que su niño(ña) debería dedicar para completar la tarea cada noche:

Kindergarten y Primer Grado-aproximadamente 10 minutos Segundo Grado-aproximadamente 20 minutos

Tercero y Cuarto Grado-aproximadamente 30 minutos Para ayudar a que el tiempo de tarea sea productivo es importante establecer hábitos de tarea buenos. Comiencen ayudando a sus niños a ser organizados:

• Utilicé un calendario para escribir fechas de vencimientos y prueban juntos. • Utilicé cuadernos de asignaciones proporcionados en el Tercer y Cuarto grado y

marquen según van terminado los trabajos. • Provea un espacio consistente para hacer la tarea. • Discuta las asignaciones de tarea con su niño antes de que sean comenzados. ¿Por

ejemplo, cuándo estudiará usted para su prueba de ortografía? ¿Qué provisiones necesitará usted para su proyecto?

• Verifique el progreso de su niño pidiendo revisar problemas de matemáticas u ofreciendo hacer un examen en casa de las palabras de deletreo.

Si su niño tiene dificultades completando su tarea, asegúrese que él/ella entiende las instrucciones de tarea y examínelos juntos. Sugiera modos de hacer el trabajo más fácil para terminar. Piense en usted como un guía, dirigiendo y alentándolos en un juego de futbol. Anímelos a hacer todo lo mejor posible. Si ellos siguen teniendo problema con las instrucciones y dedican mas del tiempo indicado para la tarea, póngase en contacto con la maestra de su niño. ¡Vamos a trabajar juntos para hacer el tiempo dedicado en la tarea un tiempo exitoso! Sinceramente, Vince Murray
