First of all i am new ;) so hello and thank you in advance for your help.
My daughter has just done into year 3 and a new teacher joined the school this year and it teaching her class.
Her class is very much made up of half Sept/Oct/Nov childeren en the other half summer childeren, just the odd few in-between - they are all lovely childeren but the abilities are still very different.
Last year the teacher was very good and set different spelling for each - one group with 10 a week and my daughters group 20, which worked perfectly and she always had very good marks. The same with maths, it worked and challenged the older childeren that little bit extra.
This year the entire class have been given 10 spellings a week. My daughter doesnt even look at them and knows them of heart, the homework in general is so much easier than even the beginning of year 2. After 10 min of homework (if that) my daughter asks me what she can do next?<br /> <br /> Next Wednesday all the parents are meeting the new teacher and i feel i would like to address this but in a nice manner. <br /> <br /> What questions to ask her? <br /> <br /> I know the teacher is new and i don
t want to be the "pushy mum" but i hope you can understand my concern a little.
So far no mums seemed to mind the "easy going" homework ... but odd one out me really does and i can see my daughter is getting bored with her easy homework.
Hannah ;)
