Homework

We ask that you sign your child’s diary each night to acknowledge that your child has completed homework expectations. We appreciate your support in our endeavors to ensure students are getting into a routine of independently commencing and completing their homework.

Homework for Year 3/4 will continue to consist of 4 components:

Spelling – A minimum of 3 spelling activities must be completed every week.
Mathematics - Activities will be related to units of work being studied. The children will complete activities, reinforcing the particular mathematical skills, as well as the language used for those skills.
Reading – All children are required to read 5 nights a week for at least 15-20 minutes.

This must be recorded in their diary with the book title and the page numbers read example:

‘13 Story Treehouse’ pgs 1-25. ‘

‘13 Story Treehouse’: pgs 26-50’

Children are required to bring their diary to school every day to be checked and signed.

At different times throughout the year, the children will be given a project to complete over a 2-3 week period. At this time, there will be changes to the homework format.

We will continue our regular check-in with you, about your child's learning as requested by you from our initial parent conferences.
