What will be done with my students

Using planners daily to record homework and take notes to and from home. Also to let parents see what their child is doing and learning at school.

The improvement and change I hope to see is that the students will take ownership of their work. I will measure this by checking the planners daily, by seeing if the students have completed work assigned, parents have sign the planner, and overall learning is improving.
