Here you will find the due dates of our 'non-daily' assignments. This is meant to keep parents informed in hopes that you can monitor the progress of your child. These due dates as well as daily work should also be listed in your child's planner, which ought to be coming back and forth from home to school every day.

Ask your child for expectations on these projects. Some of these expectations you can find in the appropriate subject areas of this site, some you may find as written information which should be in your child's binder, and some are given through verbal instructions by the teacher.
