Homework

Weekly reading and/or spelling homework is given out on Friday. Reading books will be changed on Friday. Children can independently change their bedtime book whenever they wish. Accelerated Reader Books and Green books can be changed as soon as they have been finished.

Please support your child at home by practising spellings daily and reading with them every day. Ask lots of questions as they read to support their comprehension as well as their decoding skills.

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