Homework is used to enhance and support the learning which takes place in school; it should not be a chore or battle. Little and often is usually best.

Weekly Homework

  • 20 minute daily reading - please record this in the reading diaries. Reading records and reading book should be in school on a daily basis.
  • Learning weekly spellings.  These can be found on the website and on Spell Shed.  Tests will generally take place on a Monday morning.
  • Learning multiplication tables- Times Tables Rock Stars.

Helping your Child to Read at Home

There may be additional homework which may take the form of research or investigation, or if a child needs more practice in maths or English. However, this will be on a needs basis. We will be using Education City for many of these homework activities.

Pupils should use Spelling Shed to practise their weekly spellings in a fun, interactive way. However, it is still important to practise writing them down and putting them in sentences as this helps with vocabulary and muscle memory.

Multiplication tables are the key for all areas of maths. As a school, we use the  Times Tables Rock Stars programme. All the pupils have a login and can access this at any time. The children have completed a baseline test which has assigned them to the appropriate table to practise. This automatically moves with them as they improve or need support.
