All Class 3 children are expected to do homework each week. It should take around 2½ - 3 hours a
week (which is around ½ an hour a day). Each week you will need to choose from Crispy Spring
Rolls , Birds Nest Soup , Szechuan Noodles or Lychee Dumplings (a dessert is a real treat so is
worth two mains and may take 2 weeks to complete).
Reading is no longer expected as homework it is just expected - daily for at least 20 minutes.
Homework will be set on Wednesdays and handed in on Mondays. Please make every effort to
hand in on time to ensure work is read, appreciated and marked before being handed back.
All work should be completed to the same high standards expected in school: Neatest handwriting and presentation
Completed in pencil unless you are a pen licence holder
Ruler used to draw straight lines
Date and title on every piece of work - underlined neatly using a ruler
All work should look and read as if care and effort has been used
Colouring should be neat and carefully done
Every effort to spell words correctly should have been taken
No felt pens or highlighters unless otherwise specified
There may be times when work can be completed as a presentation. These can be emailed
to school or put on a memory stick and arrive in school on Monday mornings.
Feel free to suggest any useful websites to help with homework.

lakes and places of special interest on it and include a fact file on population, types of
industry and so on.
Make a travel brochure about a destination in China. Include places of interest, map, places
to eat or places to stay. Remember you need to be very persuasive to really 'sell' these
places.

means and how it works. This could be emailed to school.

charts to explain them.

could do this on a PowerPoint and email to school.
If you have a Chinese takeaway you could try some new dishes and evaluate the flavours and
find out what ingredients are in the dish. Get the whole family involved. Or you could cook
your own Chinese, taking photos of each stage and include recipes and tips.
Find out about the Chinese Dragon Dance and in particular the dragon then make your own
model dragon.
Find out about some Chinese Martial Arts. What are they called? What do they mean? Where
or why did they start in the first place? What are the rules? How can they be used today?
