Newhey Community Primary School

Learning Logs

Homework tasks will be set to complete in Learning Logs on the first Monday of each half term and they will have a deadline, usually 6 weeks after for completion.

Children will have 3 tasks to choose from based on their learning in class. They may choose the amount of tasks they complete, also which tasks they complete. Try to encourage your child to do their homework on time and with care!

In addition, children will now have weekly SPAG (Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar) and Maths homework to complete; this may take the form of games, challenges or even online learning. A link for the SPAG and Maths homework will be sent out each Monday via Class Dojo. Please ensure your child knows their DB learning password (it is the same login and password they used during Lockdown-just ask if unsure!) 

****Please note**** Children in Year 6 will have 3 tasks in their Learning Log, however their SPAG and Maths work will be their SATs homework books as usual

Each task has a value of 2 team points each and with a total of 1 team points on offer, Learning Logs are a great way of your child extending their learning and also a way of helping their team score as many team points as possible and win rewards!

If your child does not complete the homework set, we have  a homework policy that we will follow which encourages children to complete tasks in or Homework club. Also, if they complete work below an expected standard, children may be asked to rewrite sections in their best handwriting.

Spellings and Reading Books

These will be given out on a Monday and tested on the Friday. Reading books will be changed (when needed) on a Monday also. Again, we have a behaviour policy in place which praises those who continue to show their best effort.
