Reminders & Homework

Some important reminders:

  • Children can continue to bring in clean, plastic milk or juice bottle tops whenever they can.

 

The Homework expectations for this term are:

  • Hearing your child read their take home book every night. After they have read, ask them questions from the question sheet provided from school. 
  • Practising reading the Magic Words every week. Magic Word writing practice is optional. There are also opportunities to integrate Magic Words into card games, such as Snap, Go Fish and Memory.
  • Asking your students about their personalised Writing goals and working together to practise those goals.  
  • Playing some previously learnt maths games from Michael Minas' website Love Maths. Students will be familiar with many of these from the classroom, and most of them only require dice and/or playing cards.
  • Using the available electronic resources such as Matific and Nessy Learning.  

 

Kind regards,
