Homework
Reading
We would really appreciate it if you could support your child with reading. In Year 6, this could include you sharing the reading with your child and/or having discussions about what they are reading. Although we will remind them of the need to regularly change their book once completed, they also need to work on becoming increasingly independent and reminding themselves. Reading for pleasure and enjoyment is something that we will continue to encourage; any reading completed can be written in their reading record book. We would like them to read at least 4 times throughout the week; their reading record books will be collected in on a Friday to celebrate all that has happened throughout the week.
SPAG (Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar)
Each week, your child will have lessons in spelling, punctuation and grammar, they will then have a piece of homework set on a Friday to be completed by the following Friday. Your child will receive login details to 'spag.com' website to complete these activities.
Please find below the link to the Grammar terminology.
Maths
Maths homework will be using the online programme ‘My Maths’; this will be set on a Friday to be completed by the following Friday.
