Homework expectations
• Reading for at least 10 – 15 minutes daily. This will be a RWI phonics book at your child’s level initially. Children will move onto Accelerated Reader books when they have sufficient fluency of sound and word recognition.
• Number bonds/times tables – your child will come home with a login in their homework book for NumBots, which is the same login the children will have to practise times tables on TT Rockstars. This is an online maths learning platform supporting basic number skills. We recommend a little and often approach, for example five minutes, three times per week.
• Weekly spelling words – we will share the spelling pattern that children have been learning in class in their homework book to practise.
