2. Homework Completion
For homework to be an effective extension of the school program, the
teachers, parents, and students share the responsibility for developing and maintaining good homework practices.
The TCDSB Homework Policy suggests daily maximums, not including the suggested 30 minutes of reading:
Grade 7—70 minutes
Grade 8—80 minutes
*Whenever larger projects are assigned it is important that students use time management skills to spread the work over many days.

Parents, please:

· provide encouragement and appropriate support, without doing the homework for the student

3. Online At-Home Extensions
4. Agendas
In order to help students develop skills in organization, independence, responsibility, and ownership of their work, there is an expectation that agendas are used daily. Students are also expected to bring their agendas to school each day. Please use the agenda as a form of communication.
