Homework should be done completely by students. Of course parents can help by explaining, but all answers should come from the students. Just like on classwork, I want students to TRY their best :)
If you (students) want full credit on your spelling sentences:
1. Write in your BEST handwriting. I don't want to struggle to read your AWESOME work!
2. Write the date at the top of the page (9/12/17). Put a "title" on the page. For example, First 10 Sentences, Last 10 Sentences, 3 Times Each.
3. Capitalize and punctuate correctly. The beginning of a sentence should ALWAYS have a capital letter. Add periods, exclamation, or question marks at the END to match your sentence.
4. Spell all the words correctly. There is no reason to spell these words wrong because you can check your "cheat sheet" or paper with the spelling word definitions.
5. Underline the spelling words in your sentences.
6. Write specific sentences with details. If a spelling word is clap, please do NOT just write "I clap my hands." I clap my hands after a great presentation by my classmate is much better. If I can ask a question about your sentence (who, what, where, when, why, how) or add because, that means you didn't write enough details.
7. Check your sentences when you are done. Make sure you spelled your words correctly, added end punctuation to all your sentences, and your sentences make sense.
