Learning at home

To best support learning: 

Spelling - Children have all got access to Spelling Shed (online), where games can be played whenever and I will set specific spelling activities too. Log ins are in homework books.

TT Rockstars - Times tables practice hugely supports children's maths progress. Again, log ins are in homework books.

Reading - Children can choose books from school and record reading in their reading records. We would hope for children to be reading most nights, even just for ten minutes. 

Homework - Set every Friday and due the following Wednesday. We'll be focusing on basic spelling, punctuation, grammar, handwriting and maths skills.
