Homework and Remarkable Readers

Like all other years, the expectation is reading and spelling.

Reading

Your child has been given a list of short activities which are stuck in the front of their books. They are expected to pick an activity to complete in their homework book at least TWICE a week this term. There is no expectation for parents in KS2 to sign reading records. We want the children to take ownership of their reading records as it is a working journal of their reading journey and we still want everyone to encourage them to read as much as possible. We will still be awarding books as remarkable reader prizes; but remarkable readers will be entered into the prize draw based on the activities they complete. This will be explained to the children too.

Spelling

Each week, your child will be give some spellings to learn and practise each night. It is designed to be a quick independent activity with minimal stress...it literally should take them less than 5 minutes! There is a short spelling activity to do Monday - Thursday, and then there is a spelling test on Friday. There is an information sheet stuck into homework books explaining the activities. 

PE

PE Days: 5C - Monday & Wednesday  

                5M - 

                5R - Monday & Thursday

Please can all PE kit be in school every Monday. It will be sent at home on a Friday to be washed.
