  1. TYPES OF HOMEWORK There are many different types of homework given to pupils by teachers, and these are also given for different reasons. Sometimes homework is planned and on occasions it is not. Here is a list: UNFINISHED CLASSWORK Sometimes, and when the teacher feels it would wise to do so, you will be asked to complete the work you were doing in class that day. EXTENSION WORK/REINFORCMENT This could be when you require extra practice or if the topic you studied that day was perhaps quite difficult and the teacher feels that some independent work at home will help you.

  2. Types of Homework Cont. READING / PREPARING The teacher may sometimes ask you to read a passage, or a chapter from a book. This could be to prepare for an activity that will take place in class at a later date. Or, you may be asked to read the whole book, for instance, for your English folio. RESEARCH/ INVESTIGATION/ PROJECT WORK This is where information is to obtained from somewhere other than in school. It may be that you go to a museum, a library or ask people about what they think etc. STUDY / REVISION The most obvious time for this is in preparation for an exam or test, but, really should be used throughout the year.

  3. Types of Homework cont.. PRIVATE STUDY This type of homework is carried out when the pupil wishes to complete, reinforce or revise work. • REMEMBER • No matter the subject or kind of homework you are given it will help you: • To cope with your workload better • To learn and understand complex pieces of work • To become an independent learner and thinker. • So, it is important to note all your homework in your Diary /Planner and to have clear idea in your mind of what you wish to achieve by working at home. To help with this you can use a “STUDY TIMETABLE”
