Dd is just 6. Very able I know and of course I want her to be stretched. But I also want her to have time to just be, to relax and play at home. Up until now she was getting some sounds work, such as -ay or i-e, write words with those sounds, so "play" or "time" would be examples. Set on Monday, hand in on Friday.
This week she has got 3 sounds to do (normally writes about 7-10 words for each and draws a little picture.
Also needed to find 4 pictures on a topic from the paper/magazine, stick it in book and write 2 short sentences about each.
And spellings. These are new, just for some of the children. She has to learn
materials, rubber, leather, waterproof, absorbent and transparent .
All to be done for Friday.
Do you think this excessive?
