HOME READING
Please help your child to achieve their full potential as readers by ensuring that they read at home everyday. Evidence of reading at home must be recorded in their Reading Diary in order for their book to be changed in school.
REMEMBER as developing readers it is a good idea for children to read shorter books twice in order to develop both their decoding skills and comprehension.
HOMEWORK
Spellings
Children will be given up to 8 key words to learn at home each week. These will be sent home on a Monday in the reading diary.
Times Tables
Please support your child by practicing their times tables at home. Purple Mash is a great resource for both online tests, activities and printable worksheets.
PE
Children will be taking part in PE on Mondays and Fridays this term.
Children should come into school in their kits for both days. Please ensure that they have shorts available for indoor PE (Mondays).
