Free Printable Homework Pass Set for K-12 Teachers

Plus ideas for using them.

The homework pass just might be the most coveted of all school rewards. It’s easy for teachers too, since it doesn’t cost a thing. Make it even easier to hand out homework passes with our free printable set of two options, each in two styles. Just fill out the form on this page to grab them.

Homework can be a surprisingly controversial topic. While many assume it’s just a natural part of a child’s education, others feel that homework isn’t all it’s cracked up to be . As we seek to encourage a better work-life balance for adults, is it possible homework is sending the wrong message to kids ?

That being said, very few schools have banned homework altogether , and it does have its benefits. It’s especially useful in subjects like math and reading, where students profit from lots of skills practice. Sometimes, though, it’s nice to offer kids a break with no penalty, or at least the chance to postpone their assignment to a better night. That’s where the homework pass comes in.

Homework Pass Options

Our free printable homework passes come in two options, with styles for both elementary and middle/high school:

• No Homework: This pass allows kids to skip a homework assignment, with no penalty to their grade.
• One Day Late: This one gives them an extra day to turn in their work, which can be really helpful if they have a busy night of after-school activities or aren’t feeling well.

Most teachers put some limitations on their homework passes, specifying that they’re for certain assignments only. (You don’t want to give a student a free pass on a big project or paper.) Make sure you explain any restrictions when you hand yours out.

Some teachers give every student a certain number of passes to use each semester or year. Others use them as rewards or prizes for in-class competitions or quizzes.

However you choose to use them, you can grab your free homework pass printable set by filling out this quick form.

Teachers, if you want to make a few homework passes to hand out to a few hardworking students, please take a look at the printable homework pass templates I have drawn.

For best results, print the homework passes on sturdy construction paper. Then carefully cut them out with scissors or an x-acto knife. If you want to reuse the same passes multiple times, simply leave the “for” and “date” lines blank and laminate the pass.

Halloween is such a fun day for kids. I love to treat my students with a night off from homework. You can do the same with this free Halloween Homework pass. You will win major cool points with your class and all you have to do is print and cut!

A few years ago, my mom asked me to make some homework passes for her students.  This was at the very start of my TpT days.  Let’s just say that homework pass was so u-g-l-y that I HAD to remake it.  This new one is so much better. ?

With this homework pass – assign your students homework!  ALL day long, make them think they have homework.

Just because it’s Halloween doesn’t mean you get the night off!  Be sure to get your homework done before you go out tonight!

Then, at the very last minute, pass out the homework pass to your students.

Or attach it to their homework page so they don’t see it until they get home!  Surprise!

The homework was the trick, this pass it the treat!  Get it?  Trick-or-treat!

It’s always been a big hit with the students!

I wish I could say I came up with that one, but the credit goes to my mom.  She’s a clever one, I tell ya.

Homework Pass

Regular price $0.00

This Printable Homework Pass is great for teachers and homeschool moms .  This pass is a fun way to reward your students for a job well done by giving them a little relief from homework.

Due to technology being very different from one device to the next, it is difficult for me to troubleshoot if you have a problem. It is very rare that anyone has an issue downloading one of my printables. Reach out if you do have a problem though. :) 

Please note that most   mobile devices such as phones and ipads, do not allow for downloading through a link.

Some products are sent using a compressed ZIP file.

Here's how to unzip a ZIP file:

On a laptop or PC - Save the ZIP file to your computer, right-click and select, "Extract All." This will create a new file on your computer in which you can open. Then, add the file to iCloud or Dropbox to get the files on your mobile device. On rare occasions, apps on your browser may make things a little wonky during downloading. If this occurs, please try using a different browser.

On a mobile device - Before you download the ZIP file directly to your mobile device, you may need a free app to unzip the product (a good, free one is FileExplorer Free). This will allow you to unzip the folder to access it. Another solution available on some mobile devices is to long hold the zipped file icon and then click, "Extract."

All files are sent using PDF format.   Most computers have pre-installed Adobe Reader on them, but if your particular laptop, PC, or mobile device does not have a PDF reader of some sort on it, you'll need one to view the items. Adobe Reader is the most common one and it's free. You can  download it here .

If you can't find the file once it's downloaded , try looking in Downloads under My Computer or search the title of the file on your computer for where it could be hiding.

This is an instant digital download. Nothing will be shipped.

Once you purchase, it's yours forever.   

Technical support is not always available. If it's something I can help you with I will, but most people have no issues anyway. :)   

Privacy: We never, ever sell any of your information to anyone else.  

Personal use only. I retain all rights, license, copyright, title, and ownership of the products.  

You may NOT distribute these PDF's and printables to others please, including reselling, relicensing, redistributing, giving for free, or as part of a giveaway.   

If you have a discount code, only one code is allowed in the system per order. Discount codes cannot be used more than once.

All sales are limited time only and subject to change at any time.  

Due to the nature of these items, all sales are final. No refunds.  

By purchasing in our store, you agree to these terms.
