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 words - please practice these at home by revising them from your spelling and times table notebook and by writing them down. This week we are up to:
- Spelling Rule - 62
- 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: 9s
We hope that you have a fabulous weekend!
Mrs. Hurley, Mr. Greenfield and Miss Harvey
