Bummed Out!


Hello! I received very few completed poetry assignments today. I try to post the homework on my blog daily, check to make sure the students have recorded their homework on their homework logs, and give ample reminders. What else should I do? I am perplexed! Every student that completely finished their assignment was rewarded with four BAM Bucks (that includes reading the poem aloud.) Those students that did not complete their work lost their recesses for the entire week. In fifth grade, how much hand holding should I have to do? Please feel free to send me your thoughts and comments.

Homework:
Language Arts: Vivid Vocabulary Words (make a list of additional words that share the common prefixes -er, -or, -ian, and -ist)
Math:
Practice Sheet 20 (This assignment has two sides; please make sure that your child completes both sides.)

Cheers,

Miss Klein
