AUTUMN 2nd HALF TERM
Spellings
We will share the spellings we are covering each week in class. We are following an inclusive, dyslexia-friendly Spellings programme and we review learning and understanding of the new sounds and how we decide which grapheme to use. We will share the learning focus each week so you can review these with your child.
Times Tables
We recommend that children practice their times tables every day, for at least 10 minutes. They can use their Times Tables Rock Stars log in on the app, play times tables games with you or practice writing them out/finding the answers.
Reading
Your child should bring their reading book and reading record home each day and we recommend they read to or with you every day for at least 10-15 minutes. It's a great opportunity to discuss what they are reading, what they think about the characters, what might happen next and any other thoughts they have on it. Encourage your child to use intonation and expression (prosody) when reading aloud!
Below you will also find the suggested homework activities for this half term. These are purely optional.
