Homework

Please read daily at home as much as possible. Ask lots of questions during this time to support their comprehension as well as their decoding skills. Reading books will be changed on Friday. 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.

Useful Information

Please ensure your child brings a water bottle to school each day, along with a spare change of clothes.
