Homework  ! We are often asked “What is my child's homework?”  

From now on all students homework will be in our newsletters.

We do not do homework for ‘homework's sake’.

Every night your child should read for at least 15 minutes:  

Year 0 ! 4 will be provided with readers

Year 5 ! 6 will be provided with weekly library books and du"  y

books

Every night your child can use Reading Eggs. The teachers

have re selected tasks for their reading level.

All other homework is listed here, and on class blogs.

1. Last term your child received a free du"  y book. Read this

again with your child and ask them the following questions

A. Who is the main character of this book?

B. Tell me three events/things that happened in this

story.

C. If you could change the ending/make this character

do something di" erent, what would that be……..

2. Choose and event that you and your family did during the

school holidays. Using the following graphic organiser, record in

 words and pictures this event.

FIRST NEXT THEN LAST

Some highlights from our Class Blogs

A2 ! Lots of us solidified our place

 value understanding of groups of 10 by

understanding that ‘ty’ means 'groups of10' ! for example two hundred at fifty

two means 25 groups of 10! Here is

 Toni, practicing before school! She is so

focussed on her learning here!

C1 ! This term we are focused on teaching the children allabout being clean, healthy and staying safe. This week wefocused on washing our hands correctly.

We also discussed germs and how they can be spread by dirtyhands.

 All students may ride their bikes to and from school wearing a helmet. However ONLY year 5/6 students may

do this without their parent/caregiver alongside them. All other year levels MUST be riding next to their

caregiver.
