Middle School ELA Homework Expectations

Middle school students are assigned ELA homework almost daily. Students are expected to read and annotate assigned sections nightly for homework. Each day in class homework will be checked through a brief reading quiz or by submitting their annotations. Completion of homework is crucial for their comprehension, participation and overall success in class. Please reach out to the middle school ELA teachers with any questions or to kasen.martucci@scienceandtech.org 

Here is an example of an example of a student annotation for homework
