Dear Parents and Carers, Important Message for Parents and Carers The teachers of Globe Academy believe that Home Learning is an integral part of developing every student and ensuring that they reach their academic potential. Home Learning is important because it is point where school and home come together. It serves as a window through which you can observe your children s education and express positive attitudes towards your children about their education and progress. As children grow older, homework and the amount of time engaged in homework, increases in importance. For Globe Academy staff, homework is an opportunity to provide additional academic instruction and further extend your child s learning. The benefits of Home Learning for you and your child are as follows: (1) Practice and participation in home learning tasks can improve your child s achievement. (2) When homework is completed accurately and to a good standard, not only will your child s general knowledge and grades improve but your child will also increase their mastery of basic academic skills, such as reading, writing, spelling and mathematics, something Globe Academy is committed to. (3) Your child s ability to bring an assignment home, gather and organise necessary materials to complete the assignment, return the assignment and receive a level/grade, strengthens his or her sense of personal responsibility for their learning. (4) Time management skills are learned and developed. (5) Further, when homework proceeds smoothly it can become (4) a positive aspect of your relationship with your child. (6) Home Learning offers schools an opportunity to let parents know what their children are learning and keeps parents informed about work being studied and completed in class time. (7) Home Learning helps the Academy achieve their overall mission of improving your child s achievement. (8) Homework is the bridge that joins schools and parents. For parents there is the potential to gain a greater appreciation of your child s education and achievement.
For these valid reasons we are asking that parents/carers work with us to ensure that your child completes their homework. Your child will receive a homework booklet for each subject and we ask that all parents/carers ensure that the tasks in this booklet are completed on time and to a high standard. Together we can improve your child s progress and attainment. Please sign below to confirm your agreement to support Globe Academy by checking and ensuring your child completes their Home Learning Tasks each week. In addition please sign and comment if necessary, the Homework Record sheets also in this booklet. Thank you in advance for your support. Do not hesitate to contact me with any queries or comments about Home Learning at Globe Academy. Kind Regards Ms. C. Fernandes (Vice Principal) Name of Student: Learning Family: Name of Parent/Carer: I agree to ensure that my child completes all the Home Learning Tasks in this booklet on time and to a high standard.

Homework 2: Oxides, Hydroxides and Ammonia Use these general word equations to help you: Acid + metal oxide salt + water Acid +,metal hydroxide salt + water To name the salts, remember Nitric acid makes nitrate salts, hydrochloric acid makes chloride salts and sulfuric acid makes sulphate salts.
Hint: You ll need to use some of these symbols - H 2 O water H 2 hydrogen HCl hydrochloric acid CuOH copper hydroxide ZnO zinc oxide ZnOH zinc hydroxide NaSO 4 sodium sulfate
Homework 3: Electrolysis Read the information about the electrolysis of brine (salt water, also called sodium chloride solution) and then answer the questions carefully. Electrolysis of brine The process of electrolysis involves using an electric current to bring about a chemical change and make new chemicals. The electrolysis of salt water is a large-scale process used to manufacture chlorine from salt. Two other useful chemicals are obtained during the process, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen (H 2). Uses in industry Product chlorine Uses of the chemical disinfectant and purifier manufacture of hydrochloric acid making plastics sodium hydroxide processing food products removing pollutants from water manufacture of paper hydrogen manufacture of hydrochloric acid potential as a pollution-free fuel Environmental impacts of the electrolysis of brine on a large scale must be considered. The process uses a lot of electricity that is mainly produced by the burning of fossil fuels. During the actual process of electrolysis, metal must be in contact with the solution of brine. A metal commonly used is mercury which is toxic. Some mercury escapes into the solution and into the environment.
1. Match up the word with its meaning. Manufacturing Electrolysis Brine Large scale process Splitting up using electricity Making Salt water Chemical reactions happening in a big factory 2. Name three products made in the electrolysis of salt water and explain their uses. 3. Analyse the advantages and disadvantages of electrolysis of salt water. Use linking words from the box: However Whereas In contrast On the other hand Therefore Overall
