DUO Education Offers Sample Daily Homework Log

8/27/2014

Hello everyone. With the beginning of school, I thought it would be good to include a sample of a homework log in today's blog. This is just one sample. Yet, it gets students to think, not just about the assignment itself, but also about the preparation and follow through of the assignment. Students decide the priority level of the assignment, whether or not they have all the materials needed, if they understand the assignment, and when it is finished.
Help your child to be organized and thoughtful about his or her homework. Homework logs can help your student be more efficient and more confident.
Feel free to click on the image and download the sample homework log. If you would like a customized homework log, feel free to contact me for details.

Book Report Organization Questions for Beginning Writers

Hello everyone. I thought I would create some "Book Report Organization Questions" to share. This is a great way to have children organize their thoughts before writing a book report. In some instances, you may also want to use these questions as the book report.
These questions are also great for gathering thoughts for a book review. Questions like the one asking students to recall a detail from the beginning and whether the beginning hooked him or her into the story or not, go beyond just the "normal" book report. This resource begins to address a higher order thinking instead of just recalling facts about a book.
Whether your student is working on book reports or book reviews, this is a wonderful resource for the beginning writer. It can be adapted to any level. You can even write in the answers dictated by a child too young to write his or her own answers. So, whether you are a homeschooler or a classroom teacher, this resource would be great for you.
For your copy, click the image for your two page "Book Report Organization Questions." (It is pictured here as one page only for ease of display purposes.)
