Homework
Click here for Glossary of Key Words
We really appreciate your help with homework as the work set consolidates the learning that has happened during the week in school. Homework is given in a homework folder on Fridays and is due in the following Thursday to be checked.
Reading
All children are expected to read for at least 5 minutes each day with an adult.
Recommended Reading Books
English
Children will receive spelling or phonics homework alternating each week. Spellings will incorporate learning for a test. Please encourage them to look at each word, cover it and practice writing it, then check it. Phonics will incorporate a particular aspect from their weekly phonic lessons.
Regular spelling practice of a few minutes each night will make a big difference to your childs ability.
Maths
Children are set one piece of Maths homework to consolidate the work we have been doing in class that week.
