YEAR 5/6 HOMEWORK TASKS - CGP BOOKS

Due to the number of absences, we will give the children's homework out on Monday with page numbers then. Your child will have until Thursday to bring their books back in.

Please also ensure that your child is regularly:

  • Reading: Remember 15-20 minutes reading to an adult every day is the optimum and should be continuing into Year 6. Please also encourage your child to read by themselves and then discuss the text afterwards, sharing opinions, their favourite part or questioning what happened so as to ensure that your child is understanding the text as well as reading it. All children have a Reading record to take home.
  • Spelling Rule - Year 5 are looking at Maths vocabulary.
  • TTRS/Sumdog - lots of practice on these amazing programmes that complement what we learn at school. Please see your reading diaries for login details.
  • This week's times table is: 12s


We hope that you have a fabulous weekend and that all the dad's, grandad's and father figures have a lovely day on Sunday!

Mrs. Hurley, Mr. Greenfield and Miss Harvey
