Home Learning

OrmPS Home Learning Principles:

At Ormiston Primary, we have the 4CL Home Learning Grid. The grid is made up of 12 squares, with each grid representing a new activity or goal that is either compulsory or one your child could choose to do. These activities are designed to be completed within a period of time appropriate to your child’s year group;

The 4CL grid is for a period of two weeks:

Each child has their own school Google Account and their own Hero account.

We also support two digital learning subscriptions: Mathletics and Reading Eggs. Each child is assigned their own account for Mathletics and Reading Eggs. All details of Google account and digital subscriptions can be found on the Digital Passwords page through our digital platform HERO.

Mathletics can be accessed either in the app or online- login.mathletics.com. 

Your child’s Learning Coach will assign activities weekly to encourage them to practise and consolidate what they have been learning at school. Learners can also use their console to participate in Live Mathletics, choose their own activity or design their avatar. It is expected that your child would earn a minimum of 1000 points a week. Learners not only earn digital certificates depending on the number of points they have received but also participate in our school-wide competition to earn the most points per term for their Habitat.
