Homework Activities Matrix - Year 2 teaching resource

This homework activities matrix includes 40 activities which directly address the Australian Curriculum content descriptions for English and Mathematics.

Homework requirements vary significantly from class to class and from school to school. We completely understand this! In light of this fact, this resource has been designed specifically for flexibility, enabling you to select as many or as few activities from the matrix as you wish each week. Once you have chosen the desired activities, simply copy and paste them into a text box on the homework grid of your choice and distribute to your students. In the interests of flexibility, two different grid versions are available (4 x text boxes and 6 x text boxes).

Before working with this document, ensure you ‘Enable Editing’ when opening the file. You may also wish to highlight or change the font colour on the activities as you use them – you don’t want to double up as the year progresses!
