Children should be completing home learning at least three times a week.

This can be broken down as:

• Reading — 20 minutes — reading to/with an adult. When reading with a child, please try to ask questions about the book (the author, illustrator, story, characters, setting etc.). Once you have heard your child read, please sign their reading records.
• Spelling — 10 minutes — spellings are set each week on Spelling Shed to learn.
• Times Tables — 10 minutes — timetables are set/changed as and when appropriate.

In addition, the tabs on the side of this page give information about practising spelling at home as well as learning key number facts. It is very important that your child practises both of these key areas as often as possible.
