Using Schoology Effectively

• Understand how Schoology works - you will be given training, but ask if there is anything you are unsure about.

• Know the homework timetable – what homework you tend to receive on which days.

• Your teacher will record your homework in Schoology

• They will also record when the homework has to be done for.

• If you are unsure what the homework task means, ask the teacher, either in person or via Schoology.

• Check Schoology when you get home to remind you of what you have to do

• Try to work by yourself to complete the tasks, spending the correct amount of time.

• Do the homework on the night it is set, rather than the night before it is due in. Beware of letting homework build up so that you end up with lots to do on one night.

• Take the completed homework to school on the correct day.

Books And Equipment

•Use an organised system for keeping books and equipment – have a folder for each subject.

•Use the timetable to check what lessons are on each day and to help organise what needs to be brought to school.

•Remember special equipment like calculator, protractor and ruler for Maths.

•Always bring your iPad to school.
