Power Project

At the beginning of every half term a topic based project will be given out. This half term our topic is School Days. Children (and parents) need to ‘earn’ 10 POWer Points. You can choose any of the tasks to complete and do them in any order. When children have completed a task they should bring it to school. Each half term, work will be chosen from different classes to ‘show off’ in our good work assembly. By all means go over the 10 points.

Parents’ role

• Let us know if children struggled with any of the tasks
• Please sign the reading record book when your child has read
  
• Indicate if they spent the time on the task but couldn’t complete it.
• Let us know if there is a genuine reason why the homework was not completed.
• Support and encourage, but avoid ‘doing’ the homework!
