Homework
Times table and spelling homework will be given out on Monday each week. These need to be brought back in to school every Friday please.
Year 6 should read every evening for 15 minutes. At least once a week, this should be reading with an adult and reading journals should be signed.
Children should complete one of the reading activities in their reading journal twice a term as a minimum. I always love to see the activities should your child wish to do more. We also have a reading scrapbook that all of the children will have the opportunity to take home and complete a page should they wish.
