Tomorrow the children will be assigned their next lot of homework, and you will see that there are some basic changes which have been made to the format.
This format worked well for me in 2013, but for various reasons, last year it didn't. Because this year's group is demonstrating more discipline in getting homework done I have decided to revive the old format of fortnightly homework booklets.
Each child will receive a homework booklet with a range of activities within. Many of them are, at the moment, the same for all of the class (Maths being the exception, as there are at present 4 different ability groups), but I am hoping that eventually there will be more targeted homework assignments focused on your child's area of greatest need.
This booklet (booklet 3) will be due on Friday March 13(!) and booklet 4 will be completed over weeks 7 & 8 of this term. The children can have the last week of term off as far as homework is concerned, though I would hope that they keep up their reading at ALL times!
