Look/Learn, Cover, Write and Check/Correct

Look/Learn

Read the information in the order it appears from top to bottom over and over again quietly for 3 minutes.  If you were doing this at home you may choose to read it out loud!

Cover

Cover over the information that you have read so you cannot see anything at all.

Write

Now write out word for word what you have read in the same order it appears on the worksheet

Check/Correct

Uncover the worksheet and check your work. Correct any mistakes in green pen and add in any words you have missed out.  Do this above where you have written.  That is why the lines in your exercise book are so wide!

Repeat the process above until you can recall the information correctly.

 
       

 

All year groups – January onwards

All homework will be logged on Class Charts from January. Class Charts is an app available on Apple and Android phones through the AppStore as well as a website link. The link is here: https://www.classcharts.com/parent/login

Before January please ensure:

  • You have your code as a parent/carer. This is specific to your child and is being given to your child this week in a sealed envelope.
  • Your child has their own code. This is different to the parent/carer code. This has already gone out to students and all form tutors have this code. If your child doesn’t have their code please encourage them to speak to their form tutor.
