Homework

Children will be set homework on a Thursday to be returned to school by the following Thursday.

Maths Will be based around the Maths work the children have been taught during the week or a skill that needs recapping. This will either be set online (Maths Shed/ Spelling Shed/ Times tables games) or on a sheet which will come home in the children’s book bag.

Spellings

Spellings will consist of different spelling patterns which will be appropriate to ability each child. These will change weekly but some may be recapped throughout the year. Children will be set spellings on Spelling Shed and be given a printed list to practise at their own leisure. The spelling test will take place on Friday mornings.

Reading

Reading books will be changed on a Monday and Thursday. The children should aim to read at least three times a week. If your child has finished their school reading book, they can enjoy books from home or the library and they can be written in their school diary too.

Reading Plus- Log in details will come home in due course. This will give the children even more of a variety of genres and texts which will be readily available when needed

P.E.

PE is on Wednesdays and Thursdays. All children will come to school on their PE days in kit, but please ensure all kit is labeled so items don't get lost.

Water Bottles

We encourage children to bring in a water bottle every day (water only please) from which they can drink during the day. Bottles should be clearly marked with your child's name. Water bottles can be purchased from the school office for £1.50, or you can provide one from home.

Snack

Snack remains at 20p for a slice or toast or a bag of fruit. Snack money and purses are kept in the children bags inside our class cloakroom to keep it safe during the day.
