• The most important thing you can do to aid your child's learning is to encourage them to read to you regularly (daily if possible).

• Your child’s half-term spellings are stuck in their reading record. Please practise these spellings several times a week at home as individual words and in sentences. Spelling check is every Thursday. Scores will be marked on the spelling sheet.

• Your child will receive maths homework each fortnight on a Friday to be completed and returned to class on the Wednesday of the second week. 

• Your child will receive a reading comprehension task to complete, one for half-term to be completed and returned to class before the end of that half-term.

• There will also be a termly ' Challenge homework’ which will be given out with a date for return towards the end of the term. This will be topic-based and completed by making either a model, painting, PowerPoint, information booklet or any other creative way that you can think off.
