How to support your child at home:

Daily Reading – It’s really important that your child reads regularly, at least 3 times per week (this can include having a story read to them). Please use the green reading record book to record comments. New books will be given on a Monday and Wednesday if children have read at home, a library book of free choice will be given on a Friday.

Spellings - Spelling patterns and rules will be taught through focused lessons. In addition, children are expected to learn the words included in the Year 1 common exception words spelling list. The national expectation is that, by the end of Year 2, children can spell all of these words accurately, alongside the words taught each week that follow particular spelling patterns and rules.

Maths basic skills – each week there will be the minimum expectation that children go onto Numbots for at least 20 minutes as part of their ongoing homework.


Things to remember:

All homework is set on a Friday and is due in on Wednesday morning.

PE is on Wednesday and Thursday - remember to wear your PE kit on these days.

Please bring water bottles in daily.
