Homework
Spelling
Reading
Reading at home is very important in helping your child to learn new vocabulary and improve their spelling. Reading lets us explore new worlds and opens up our imagination. Alongside their reading book, children will have the opportunity to bring home a Top 10 read. From the date of borrowing, children will have 4 weeks, including holidays, to read and return their book.

Times Tables
By the end of year five, the expectation is that all children will be confident with their times tables up to 12 x 12 including division facts. Children should access Times Tables Rock Stars at home for a least 10 minutes a day to practise these tables. All children have been provided with a login previously, but if you have lost it please don't hesitate to ask for a new one.
To access Times Tables Rock Stars please follow the link below and use the school postcode (OL5 0HT) to find our school.
