CLASS DAYS AND TIMES
We have classes on Mondays & Thursdays or Tuesdays & Fridays from 3:00p.m. – 7:00p.m and Saturdays from 10:00am-2:00pm. Please allow at least 20-30 minutes of class time per subject.
MATERIALS NEEDED FOR CLASS
Students should always come prepared with a sharp pencil and an eraser as well as their completed homework.
INCOMPLETE HOMEWORK
Completing homework daily is necessary to succeed in Kumon. If, for any reason, homework is not completed, please bring any unfinished assignments to class, so that homework can be reassigned.
WHEN A STUDENT IS UNABLE TO ATTEND CLASS
If you let us know a class in advance, we will provide work for the absent period. Please call us at the phone number listed above or email us at the email address above to make the arrangements. Absent student’s work will be placed in our pick up boxes located just outside the front door and will remain there until the morning of their next class day. You will receive a phone call notifying you that the work is there to be picked up.
PARENT’S ROLE IN KUMON
Please check that your child has completed their work daily. Home marking is encouraged so that corrections can be made immediately and so that students stay on track. We will be happy to show you how to mark and you will be provided with an answer book.
COMMUNICATION BETWEEN INSTRUCTORS AND PARENTS
We will send home student progress information after every achievement test, along with the achievement test results. Information of this type is sent to you through your child, so please check their blue Kumon case for communications to you. If you ever have any questions at all, please call us at any time or let our receptionist know during class that you need to talk to me and we will set up a mutually convenient time.
THE CLASSROOM IS A PLACE FOR LEARNING
Some children may have food allergies, so please do not bring food or drink into the classroom area. Students are asked to be considerate of their fellow classmates by talking quietly and minimally. Parents and siblings are asked to please wait in the Parent Waiting Area and to keep noise to a minimum.
CLASSROOM ROUTINE
Students should go to the check in area and pick up their file. New homework will be exchanged with completed assignments. Students should then find a seat and begin the day’s class work. When corrections and class work are completed, marked by an assistant and corrected, students should check out with the Instructor before they leave. Parents are responsible for their child while at the Kumon Centre, therefore we cannot monitor a child’s whereabouts once they have left the classroom, if the parents have dropped them off.
