they have had the h.w. placed in their folders for them by the Kinder paras. I don't have a para and may have 28 students this year. I think it's too much for them to mark their own. If I start walking around checking each folder, I'm afraid it will be too time consuming! Hi, I currently teach 3rd but I had been in 1st for 7 yrs. I think they can handle putting homework in their folder. I'm not sure how the folders are set up but you can teach the kids step by step. Is the folder marked on the inside? If not, perhaps you can place a little sticker on the side for homework "to do" so they know where to place it. It will take some time initially but will save you time in the long run. Remember to have them "buddy check" each other to see if it's in the right spot. I'm not sure what you mean by "mark their own" . Before I run off anything to be sent home, I stamp a copy with "homework" so that each copy already has it marked. I also had the kids pass out finished and graded work at the end of the day after the homework was passed out. I think the kids had it down pretty fast! It's amazing how quick they move at the end of the day :-) ~jen _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
