How You Can Support Your Child at Home

Reading
Children are expected to read at least four times a week, as reading underpins all other areas of learning. Please record their reading in their reading diary and ensure it is signed by an adult each week. To support their progress, you can use the comprehension sentence stems available on the school website to enhance their understanding of the text. Take time to discuss what your child has read and explore any new vocabulary they encounter.

Spellings
Spelling rules are explicitly taught in class. New spelling lists will be sent home every Friday and tested the following Friday. These lists are available on the school website for your reference. To support their practice, children should use Spelling Shed to reinforce their learning of weekly spellings.

Homework
Homework will be sent home on Fridays and should be completed and returned by the following Friday. Children who do not return their homework will attend Homework Club during break time with a teacher. 

Children will receive one sheet of Maths homework and one sheet of Reading or SPAG to complete in their homework books. Spellings have been given out and are stuck into the children’s homework books too. Please ensure these are practised.

Thank you for your continued support in helping your child succeed in their final year of primary school!
