Homework

In Year 6, we have lots of things to help extend and improve our learning at home. We should complete the following over the course of a week:

Read at least three times a week to an adult and have them sign our reading records (house points can be earnt if you do this).
Complete a reading quiz when we finish a book.
Practice our knowledge of times tables each week on TTRS - remember to look out for competitions.
Practice our spellings ready to be tested each Friday.
Practice our handwriting for 5 minutes each night where possible.
Complete the Maths or English homework given by our teacher.

We also have Charanga available to us if we would like to continue our music learning at home.
