Homework: Week 5

Homework this week;
Passport
The Senior Syndicate Passport is a collection of activities to cover the beginning of the school year and is integrated with our unit;
Being the best we can be.
Please complete
• Map of how you get to school –please draw this into your homework book.
• Senior Syndicate Quiz –Get your parents to help!!
• Leadership. Talk to your parents about the questions on this page to help you form your own opinions.
Next week your parents will be commenting on your work in the Passport. You may need to finish some pages and work on your presentation (including handwriting!).
Word Study:
This weeks spelling is to create a 20 word crossword (10 across and 10 down) using words from the Passport that relate to the Multiple Intelligences / leadership or personal goals
to create and make your clues.
Or
A 30 word word-find using 30 words from Multiple Intelligences/leadership or personal goals.

There are some pages we will finish next week so only complete the ones we have done in class and the ones above!
If homework is not collected at school due to absences students are expected to get the sheet as soon as possible or from this blogsite.

If homework is too hard and needs adjusting to suit specific learning needs the student needs to see me by Thursday of the week the homework is set. They need to explain what is too challenging and suggest an alternative e.g reducing the words in the wordfind etc.
If this discussion is left until after Thursday it becomes more of a time-management issue which I will be less negotiable over!
