Helping your child with numeracy

Children develop numeracy skills when they use mathematical ideas in their everyday situations. You can help your child start to understand these concepts by looking for opportunities where your child can:

sort, organise and count collections of things like clothes, toys, books, shells, rocks and birthday candles

choose from a variety of materials of different shapes and sizes to use for play and solving problems

be involved in making plans and designing their own constructions like cubby houses, robots and sand castles.

More tips at: http://raisingchildren.net.au/articles/numeracy_early_years_-_dest.html/context/246

Helping with homework

You can:

help your child with assignments, but don’t do the work for them as this doesn’t help your child to learn

let the school know of any family situation that may interfere with homework

chat to your child’s teacher if your child is finding homework too hard

help your child to have a regular time each day to do their homework

encourage children to re-read their writing to check for spelling and punctuation

encourage and praise your child’s efforts. Helen Culbert

Proforma of letter to parents about the ESSA written test

Dear Parent or Carer The Essential Secondary Science Assessment (ESSA) test four Year 8 students will be held on Tuesday 23 November 2010. The Test takes approximately 80 minutes. It contains multiple choice, short response and extended response tasks. The ESSA test is a diagnostic test that will provide information about what students know and can do in science. Tasks in the test are framed on Stage 4 outcomes and essential content in the NSW Science Years 7 -10 Syllabus. Students can bring home the test stimulus magazine to discuss with you after the test. Students will be tested on their:

knowledge and understanding of science

understanding and skills in the process of scientific investigation

ability to evaluate evidence, make judgements and think critically

ability to access information and communicate scientific ideas.

Students also complete a survey about their opinions, attitudes and values. For the test, students are asked to provide their name, gender and age. They are requested to provide information as to whether they are from a language background other than English and whether or not they are Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. This information is treated confidentially and held securely to ensure that the right to privacy of all students is maintained. If your child has a disability that needs special consideration or has been educated in English for less than one year, please contact your child’s school to discuss special provisions or possible exemption from the test. Results of the test will be available during Term 1 2011. A personal report prepared for each student will describe the science knowledge and skills demonstrated by the student in the test. There will also be information about how the student’s results compare with overall performance of all students in the test. You will be invited to complete a parent survey about the test and science learning. The principal of your child’s school is able to provide you with more details about the ESSA program if you require additional information. Lothar Bujtor- A/Manager, Contracts Development
