Homework
Most weeks, Year 3/4 homework will 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 must bring their diary to school every day to be checked and signed by an adult.
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 (fortnightly, monthly or as needed) from our ‘Getting to Know You’ conferences. Please let us know if anything has changed.
