Oak Class Homework Logs
Well done to all the children and parents who have been recording reading, mental maths and project work in their red homework logs.
These books are handed in on Monday mornings to be checked by Mrs. Bray.
Unfortunately some logs are still completely blank. We are therefore not sure if children have done nothing at home, or if the parents are unaware of the log or what has been done in it. (There is an example on the back cover).
Please ask your child about their homework log and sign the slip below to say that you have seen it and are aware of what to do with it.
