Weekly Homework Expectations for Falcon's children.

TT Rockstars – The expectation is either to complete 3 x 3 minute sessions or 9 x 1 minute sessions over the course of the week. The children can choose to use Garage or Studio, or a mixture of both for this. Garage targets tables that the chidren are deemed to needed for the child. Studio tests all of the times tables up to 12 x 12 (The Year 4 Expectation and the way to earn speed certificates and badges) These sessions will earn a further 10 minutes of Golden Time.
