Room 7's Weekly Homework Challenge
Reading
Every night our child needs to read to you for at least 5
minutes.
Literacy
Your child has some essential words to learn. See how many
they already know and attack the hard ones. They will be tested after three weeks.
Basic Facts Challenge
Please test your child every night. Mark the ones the get
correct. During the week see if they can completed their Basic Fact Challenge
in under 2 minutes. They will be tested to see if they can recall their homework facts on Monday.
Mix up the order and test them at any time.
Try and see if your child can learn these as facts and not
use a strategy to answer them (i.e. counting using fingers)
We will be competing in a Basic Fact challenge, with Room 8, every Friday
after assembly.

Mr Dufty's Rules for a Mini-Project.
• Plan it first!!! Your homework book is for your best publishing.
• Make your presentation fun BUT full of
information! Show pride and complete your project with your best presentation. Mr Dufty can tell when you have rushed or haven't
• Don't copy what you find - write in your own
words! This is stealing!!
• Use all the space you have so make it fun and
interesting.
Get Mum or
Dad to check that you have answered all the questions. Ask them for some help,
as they will know lots of stuff!
Remember to have
fun with your presentation but you must convince me that you have investigated
your topic fully. You will be mark on your presentation and originality of your
written work. If you quote a book or
website you must acknowledge it.
