COMPULSORY TASKS Spelling Reading Math - 4M 2015

Welcome back to Term 2. This term homework will look a bit different. There will still be the spelling list to practise and maths to
complete with additional tasks to do over two weeks. These tasks are optional and homework is now due every second week.
Optional activities will vary each fortnight. To save paper and in an effort to be more aware of how much paper we use, homework
sheets will only be available on the class weebly site. 4m2015bps.weebly.com
This also means there is also no lost
homework.
First homework this term is due in Week 2 on Friday May 1st.
