<p>Children are usually given homework on a weekly basis. If you are unsure about what your child needs to complete, please ask your child&#39;s teacher.</p>

<p>If you would like to help your child with any extra challenges at home, why not try some of these ideas:</p>

<p>Reading&nbsp;- Children can always read a few extra pages of their reading books or library books:</p>

<p>Why not ask them a few questions to check their understanding of what they have read?</p>

<p>They could also write a book review to tell others what they think of the book.</p>

<p>Ask them to design a new cover for their book based on what they have read so far.</p>

<p>Mental Maths&nbsp;- Ask your child a few extra mental maths questions to review their numeracy skills:</p>

<p>Can they calculate the change from your last shopping bill?</p>

<p>Can they work out how long TV&nbsp;programs last by looking at the TV guide?</p>

<p>How long does it take them to recite / write down their times tables?</p>

<p>Daily Sudoku&nbsp;-&nbsp;Try our&nbsp;<a href="http://www.downs.kent.sch.uk/page_viewer.asp?page=Daily+Sudoku&amp;pid=29">Daily Sudoku</a>&nbsp;challenge. The puzzle changes every day, so why not print a few in advance and keep them ready if your child ever wants an extra challenge.</p>

<p>Superclubs Plus&nbsp;- Children in Years 2-6 can learn valuable ICT skills at <a href="http://www.superclubsplus.com/">www.superclubsplus.com</a>. Why not ask your child to show you what they can do?</p>



<p>Have fun!&nbsp;Remember that our children work incredibly hard at school, so they deserve some free time to relax too!</p>
