3.6 Homework

Homework is due on Thursday 14 February.

The day of reckoning is finally here! On Thursday, I will collect your final booklets from you. These will be assessed, and the final level will be given to you after half term and put on your reports. I look forward to receiving all the finished booklets – there has been some great work so far. Make sure you include your own words!

3.5 Homework

Homework is due on Thursday 7 February.

By Thursday, you should have the good copies for the following sections:

* Front Cover
* Reasons why Catholics go to Mass
* The Sign of the Cross
* The Penitential Rite
* The Liturgy of the Word
* Gloria
* Readings
* Responsorial Psalm
* Gospel Reading
* Homily
* Creed
* Liturgy of the Eucharist
* Offertory
* Preparation of the Gifts
* Eucharistic Prayer

Some of you are keeping up to date, most of you have a few pieces to catch up on, and two or three of you are very far behind. Remember, this booklet will be assessed as your assessment task for this half term, so I will be giving you a level based on all your work throughout this half term. Also, it is very important that you submit your own work to me, not printouts of work you have copied and pasted from the internet. Otherwise a beautiful booklet will get a low level because it is lacking evidence of your own understanding. So do look at the tasks below to help you know what to include!
