Homework
Children will be given spellings on Mondays. These will be tested in a written test on a Friday. It is recommended that spellings are practised for a short period daily. Children are expected to read at home for 20 minutes at least three times a week. This can be independently. Research shows, children that read at home, improve their vocabulary, concentration and make progress in their learning.
As the year progresses, more homework will be given out to help children prepare for Year 7.
Summer 1- Children will be set a homework from their Maths revision book weekly and one other reading or grammar homework.
