Inventors and explorers homework

A wide range of homework options for the topic of inventors and explorers which we called movers and makers. The activities are broken down into 4 key areas - creativity, exploration, written skills and mathematical skills.

We would give the pupils a full term/ half term dependant on the length of the topic and then host a homework showcase. Parents would come in and celebrate the successes of the showcase and the children would take turns to present what they chose to do. There is a range of activities so even the pupils with disengaged families have the opportunity to succeed. The showcase has been hugely successful at raising pupil engagement and establishing links between school and families.
