HOMEWORK
Homework is an important part of supporting your child's learning in school. Reading at least 3 times per week at home with an adult signature in the reading diary will support your child's reading and develop a love of books. Spelling and maths homework will be given out each week. The weekly spelling test will be every Friday. Weekly maths homework will be using MATHSWATCH. Your child needs a login and password.
If you have any further questions, or wish to find out more, please use Class DOJO to get in touch.
