Homework Week 2

Well done to everyone who tried their hardest to produce fun and interesting homework on the letter M. I was very impressed with the students who listened and made sure they were well organised and showing off their independent working habits.

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.

Make sure you choose something that you can research and find at least 10 facts. 

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 finished!! A great piece of presentation has information and pictures.

• 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.
