To think this is a ridiculous homework for a 4 yr old?

"take a photograph of something from the natural world. It could be a tree, a plant or animal. Write a report about it."
No joke. I thought ds had been given the wrong homework slip but his friends had the same.
We have taken some photos and he has written on the computer "yelo flowa" and "pee shoots" which I think is pretty good for someone who's only been at school for a few weeks but how ridiculous!

I have had a shock tonight- told by my friend that when she dropped her dd at school only our 2 dcs were able to get ready for PE without help . Parents of all the other dc were helping their darlings get changed .I thought being able to dress independently was something necessary for school

Agree - OTT. And Reception children shouldn't be getting any homeworkn other than reading imo

Sorry captaincroc, but why were all the parents there in any case ?

What ages ?

The parents were there because PE is the first lesson on weds am, so instead of dropping off they stayed to get them changed! Reception class btw, 4 year olds.
