This homework grid has been designed to help families of students in 3J keep track of fortnightly activities to be completed after

school. Each block in this grid is a 10 minute activity. The aim for this fortnight is to read every night, engage in at least 10 minutes of daily physical activity after school and complete one household job per day. When you have completed an activity you can colour the box in. Dont forget to get your parent/s signature before handing your grid in.
