HOMEWORK!!!!

=Homework = In grade 6, students are expected to complete a minimum of 30 - 45 minutes per day of homework. It is the students responsibility to ensure all set work is begun promptly and completed by the due date. I strongly encourage all students to develop a dedicated homework routine and utilise their school diaries to manage homework commitments. Developing these excellent habits now will greatly assist with their transition to secondary school.

__At School__:
Homework is given out on Mondays and collected on Fridays, all homework tasks are recorded in student diaries. If you are having any difficulties with your homework, term project or meeting set deadlines, please see Miss Anderson as early as possible.

__At Home__:
Students are expected to read for a minumum of **20 minutes per day** to a parent or guardian, learn their weekly spelling words, complete a spelling task and either a grammar or maths sheet. In addition to this, students are given a term project that they are required to work on at home and manage independently. //**Note:** Learning tasks that are not completed during class time may be given as additional homework.//

**__Ideas for parents__: **
Develop a homework schedule with your child - setting aside 30 - 40 minutes per night for reading and working on set tasks. Discuss homework and term projects with your child, ensuring they are beginning their work promptly and working towards meeting their deadlines. Encourage your child to use a broad range of resources when researching, such as the internet and local library.  | 4x L.S.C.W.C 3 Spelling Activities Maths sheet – Rounding and Estimating 5x reading signatures
