Homework

HOMEWORK

Home Reading

As part of their regular homework in class one, your child will bring home up to two reading books and a 'Reading Journal' which is designed to help them get the most out of their home reading experience. These books will be aimed at developing their phonics and comprehension skills. Your child should be spending around 10 minutes at least 4 times a week on reading activities. This will normally mean reading their home reading book and talking about what they have read with an adult. Please sign and date the reading journal when your child has read and discussed their reading with you. Reading books are usually changed each Friday.

Phonics

Please see your child's 'Busy Book' (Reception) or Phonics homework book (Year 1) to see what your child is learning in Phonics. There will be words and spellings to practise at home.

Maths 

Year One will be sent home an online game through Active Learn. This will build upon their learning in class.

Other activities may be sent home when appropriate. These may include topic research or science investigations.

PE KITS

Just a reminder that your child should have a full PE kit in school every day. Whilst we have specific timetabled slots for PE on Tuesday and Wednesday, the lessons are never exclusively held on these days and are dependant on the weather.

If you require any further information or advice, please do not hesitate to contact us.
