Homework is not graded at the elementary level. However, their homework completion will be reflected in their work habits section on their report card.
If homework is too difficult for your child or is taking a very long time to complete, please contact your classroom teacher.
In Language Arts students should read at least 20 minutes per night and study spelling words. 6

8. Parent Readers
You can sign up for a date and time to read to your child’s reading class. Please sign up for the time that corresponds with the period your child has reading with Mrs. Parr.
All parent readers must have a background check already completed and be on the list as an approved volunteer. If you haven’t completed the volunteer process yet, it’s easy. You can access the information on the Klein ISD website.

20. The Nurtured Heart Approach
♥ The Nurtured Heart Approach is a way of seeking out and acknowledging the positive character traits and behaviors that we see in others.
♥ Traditional behavior management methods have focused attention on the things that are going wrong in classroom situations. Nurtured Heart puts the focus, energy, and teacher’s attention on the things that are going right.
