Home Learning

Reading: Our aim is to develop a love of reading for all our children.  In order to support this, we encourage you to read with your child regularly, both through the books they bring home from school and through regular bedtime stories.  Reading should be a fun and enjoyable process for both you and your child to develop together. Please update your child’s reading record when you read so that staff know if a book has been completed.  Books will be changed regularly but remember, re-reading a book can be very helpful for improving fluency and developing comprehension skills.

Times Table Rockstars: In order to develop the rapid recall of multiplication and division facts relating to times tables, children from Years 2 & 3 are encouraged to access the games which have been set on their TTrockstars account.  All children have their own personal login and individually set times tables to work on.  Battles between the class groups are set weekly with rewards for the winners and top scorers.

Homework: Maths, comprehension and spelling activities are set weekly.  Homework is set every Friday to be  completed by the following Thursday.  

PE: There are 2 P.E. sessions per week in Class 2 (Tuesdays and Fridays).  On Tuesdays, the children will go swimming until February half term so will need their swimming kit.

Please ensure your child comes to school with their full PE kit on both PE days.
