  10. Homework Guide Homework isn’t just what the school gives You can support your child’s learning through various activities at home: - Baking – supports maths, food hygiene and language. Talk to your child about what they have made and how they made it. - Visiting places – talk about what you can see, link it to other information your child will know. Tell them any interesting facts about where you are. - Time can often be developed outside school – use of sky TV – when programmes are on, how long they are on for. How long until tea time etc. - Playing games as a family to build on social skills, turn taking. - Keeping a weekend diary / orally or written Homework that is given during the week from school is an extension of work in school. Children should be able to complete it independently and to the same standard I would expect in class (handwriting, neatness etc.) Reading - P4-7 should be reading a mixture of: their reading book, newspapers, magazines, comics, a bedtime novel etc. - Question them on the story; what would you do if you were this character? ; how does X feel? how do you know? ; what might happen next? ; did you enjoy the story? Why?

  17. Rights Respecting School Busby Primary puts the Rights of the Child at the heart of the school. A RRS teaches about children’s rights but also models rights and respect in all its relationships: between teachers, adults and pupils. I have the right to an education. I have the responsibility to let others learn.
