Bedtime books can be changed throughout the week. Acc+elerated Reader Books and Green books can be changed as soon as they have been finished.

For maths practise, regular use of Numbots (you will have received logins and instructions for this) alongside practising every day key skills like telling the time on an analogue clock, recognising coins and measuring in different units.
