Homework+Term+1

Miss Baker will be keeping a record of who can manage themselves and their time and complete their homework each week. Those who do complete their homework on time will be rewarded!

Homework is given out every Tuesday and due in the following Tuesday. This gives families the week and weekend depending on when they have the most time available. Please come and see Miss Baker if your child gets stuck on a homework task or if you run out of time to complete all the tasks. Homework - Week 12, Term 1 - Holiday homework __**Maths**__ - There are no maths book pages or spelling words over the holidays. The only work which might need to be completed in the holidays is Integrated Studies.

__**Integrated Studies**__ - For the __**communities**__ topic you may still need to 'take action' and collect evidence of this in the way of photos or videos. We will be sharing this back in class in __**week 2**__ and I will be checking it off.

For the __**histories**__ topic you need to complete work for questions 1 & 2 on the rubric - this is the family tree, timeline, biography and explaining of communication methods. You have the rubric in your google docs, integrated studies folder. You need to think about how you will present this. In week 1 and 2 of next term we will do question 3 together in class. Then in __**week 3**__ we will be inviting parents and families in to share our learning and this is when I will be doing the teacher assessment.

Here is more information about the histories topic and what you need to do: http://missbakerslearners.wikispaces.com/histories
