Homework Policy

Homework Students should be practising questions from the relevant sections of the text book each night (minimum 20 minutes).  (The text book is available digitally from the teacher.  Students must provide a USB stick for a copy.  Yes, students have been aware of this since the beginning of the year).  Sometimes the teacher will set certain tasks, other times the students will be encouraged to set their own tasks, based on their identified areas of weakness.  Regardless, there is never an excuse of 'The teacher didn't give me any homework.'  To this, I would reply 'Practice anyway.  20 minutes at least.  GO!'
On the Mathletics site (www.mathletics.com) the only available options are the topics under instruction.   Students should be using the Mathletics site to revise, practice and improve their skills.   All students are expected to log on to this site outside of school hours to practice topic skills.
Notes, examples and exercises should be read over every night to improve understanding.
I would encourage all students to revise their work every night, and to pay attention to hints and revision sheets that are distributed in class.
Assignments should be completed on time.
