OPTIONAL HOMEWORK TASKS
INTRO
We had some requests from some parents to have the option of increased homework tasks to help the children prepare for secondary expectations.
We are aware that some families would rather stick to the usual amount of homework set for the children's last term of primary.
As a result, we have collated a range of printable workbooks, resources and links that could be used to supplement the weekly class homework. These can be found below.
You will also see an image of a possible timetable to help organise some of the activities below into weekly sessions.
Please do as little, or as much as you feel works for you and your family.
