Frequent and regular reading at home as well as practise on Times Table Rockstars is important. We recommend reading to an adult at least three times a week and playing on TTRS at least three times weekly as well. The children also have logins for Spelling Shed. Please allow time for this to be accessed at home as it will consolidate spellings learnt in school.
Please let the class teacher know if reminders of login details are needed.
A menu of homework activities will be set each half term and sent home. Please find our current homework menu below:
