Universal Homework Model


Hello All! Below is my own current rough draft for my Universal Homework page. There are a few more levels on this page than on the official Univ. Homework Model. (UHM) I haven't figured out exactly how I want to do the points yet. Check out this blog(http://awholebrainteacher.blogspot.com/2011/09/universal-homework-model.html)  for a great explanation of how the UHM works and additional links! It is a 2nd grade teachers blog (the great allisong!) but has a great basic description. Wib on!
