Reading
Reading for pleasure is an integral part of your child’s development. We ask that children should aim to read four times a week at home. This can be completed on reading plus or just reading a book of their choice. However, we need at least 3 reads a week on Reading Plus. Children will be answering questions in their planners in school, based on school reading books.
Children have access to Spelling Frame, Reading Plus and Times Table Rockstars. They are to use these each week at home. These apps will be checked on Thursdays, to ensure they have been completed. Children must complete 3 reads and a vocabulary on Reading plus. 10min across the week plus a soundcheck, on times table rockstars and a test plus 3 practises on spelling frame.
Spellings
Children will be given a spelling list to complete each week. These will be set and sent home via Spelling Frame on a Friday, with children tested the following week. We ask that children practise their spellings on Spelling Frame at home throughout the week.
Homework
Children have access to Spelling Frame, Reading Plus and Times Table Rockstars. They are to use these each week at home.
