Elementary & Middle School Homework (2023-24)
These materials are useful for the students to track their homework and their learning. The syllabus has the ‘tentative’ homework schedule as well as the lessons for each meeting. The student workbook serves as a “how to” guide and provides a step=by-step guide for most of the activities we do in the class.
HOMEWORK: There are two sets of homework for each week; about debating and about the debate topic. Both sets are due each week. ty!
