Homework Week 3 Term 1 2015

The amount of time given to complete the tasks will vary depending on what is required. 20 minutes a night is a good guide, but children are very busy these days and if you don’t have time to fit the homework in some days, or your child is just too tired, that is fine.
Reading
Take a book home each night. You might get a book from your teacher, your group browsing box or from the library.
Get a member of your family (Mum, Dad, Grandma etc) to sign the reading log in your Book Bag.
Bring your Book Bag to school every day.
Books only go home in Book Bags.
Inquiry
All about Me. Think about yourself as a learner. What have you learnt to do recently? Ride a bike? Knit? Is there something you would really like to learn to do?
Record your homework on your homework sheet in your google drive.
