Homework

We know how truly precious time is. Therefore, homework at Keys is both limited and purposeful. Homework is meant to help students reinforce skills learned in class or prepare for an upcoming lesson. Children ease into homework in first grade with 10-20 minutes each evening reading with an adult. Second, third, and fourth graders average 20-45 minutes of homework and assigned reading.

“To teach the Fibonacci sequence, we went in the field to explore and look for patterns on the back of leaves and blades of grass.” Daniel, Third Grade Teacher
