Homework 2024
Homework Expectations...
Make sure you establish a daily homework routine.
Spelling - There is an expectation that you will learn your spelling list and learn the meanings of the spelling words each night.
We do not want you learning them only on Thursday night, doing well in the tests on Friday, and believing that you have actually learned them properly.
Basic facts are just that – basic! They are simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division equations that you must know instantly. There are no ‘hard’ basic facts. They are simply addition and subtraction facts to 20 and times tables (x and ÷) to 10x10.
If you need extension or extra practice, there are many free websites you can use. Just google ‘basic fact games’.IXL (Maths English), Read Theory, and 99 Maths are also great websites to use
Reading - We also expect that you will read for at least 20 minutes minimum each night. In the Senior School, we do not send home reading books. You can issue books from our library and their local library, and also bring novels from home.
Respect - Your book must be neatly set out and looked after. You must complete your homework every week. Don’t give me excuses, saying that you were too busy to do your homework.
