You will be rewarded for any homework activities that are completed and returned on time.

 

Home Reading

You will be given a reading book to take home. Please aim to read at least 3 times a week and ask an adult to sign your reading record to show us what you have done. Reading books will be changed twice a week or when needed.  Please try to bring your book into school everyday so that we can listen to your child read in school.

Our PE day is Wednesday . Please bring into school your PE clothes and trainers. We will be getting change in school this year so you will need a pair of shorts or tracksuit bottoms, a white t-shirt and a pair of black pumps or trainers. PE bags will be sent home at the end of term.

 

Home Learning

Should you be absent for longer periods of time this year, it is really important that if you feel well enough you do keep up with your learning at home. We will continue using the website LBQ for our home learning. Each day, you will be sent a text message with an access code which will allow you to access the work set for that day. Some children may also have access to another website called IDL which can also be used to complete learning at home.  Both these and other useful websites can be found on the link below.
