8. Homework
Homework is a very important aspect of school life and an extension of our learning.
We expect a very high standard for homework and know that the children will give it in when requested.
Use this slide to establish your expectations for homework and to prescribe how and when it goes out. The table above shows what is in the school policy, and here is the amount expected: Years 1 and hour per week
Years 3 and hours per week, Years 5 and hours per week

9. Clothing and PE PE days are Tuesday and Thursday.
Please make sure you have the correct kit, labelled and in school all week.
Earrings must be removed for PE, and long hair tied back.
This is quite obvious, but adjust accordingly and add details of kit if needed.

10. Class Dojo!
If you wish to use this opportunity to show your parents about this, then I can help you set it up. If not, then just delete this slide for now.

11. Class Charter/Rewards/Sanctions
Please add a copy of the agreed charter you have written with your class – either copy and paste the table, or list the rules/rewards however you have decided them.

12. Reading
Please encourage your child to read at least 3 times a week and sign their reading record whenever they have read for a short period.
We will collect the Reading Records in to check that children are reading at home and to read any messages you may have written.
We have started to organise reading books…
It is important to encourage parents and children to start the home reading as soon as possible, and many parents will ask. Adapt this slide according to how you have decided to manage the reading books with your class. There will be further discussions about the reading books in the corridor and how we use them. But for now, please start children on taking reading books home and getting parents/carers to sign reading diaries regularly.

13. Future Events Parents Evening – Tuesday 17th and Thursday 19th October
Class Assembly-Friday 10th November
Either copy and paste some of the key dates from the main list, or just put in the relevant dates for your class such as class assemblies.
