Homework is set every Friday and is to be completed by the following Friday. Our weekly homework consists of:

Spellings – each week we learn a new rule and this task will consolidate and embed their spelling knowledge
Set times tables
A task on the homework grid

Our homework will concentrate on building confidence and extending ability across key curriculum areas.

Reading: Children are expected to read out loud to an adult every day. Parents/carers are requested to sign home reading records to confirm reading. We ask children to bring their reading book and reading log in to school every day.
