Please note that some students may have completed the above homework assignments in class, therefore they may not have any homework written in their planner. I appreciate parents checking and signing planners on a daily basis. If you ever feel that your child is doing too little or too much homework, please let me know. At the Grade 5 level, we think that 45 minutes a night is a recommended guideline.Thank you,Mr.Wu
