How You Can Help• Check your child is taking all equipment to class.• Check their calendar for important due dates. • Check they have completed their weekly homework. • Encourage discussions around concepts learnt at school.• Look for numeracy and scientific “moments” and discuss
them.
If your child is absent remind them to email their teacher to see what classwork has been missed.
