Spelling Practice Sheet

Spelling test will be on Friday 30th January

 

This weeks homework, children need to complete the following pages in their CGP book:

 

  • Timestables workbook - Spring Term Workout 4

 

  • SpaG workbook -  pg 62-63 - Direct & Reported Speech

 

To help us provide even more targeted support for your child, we are asking children to check their work with their adults, if possible, at home using the answer key found at the back of the book.

By handling the initial marking at home, you’ll get a great 'real-time' look at your child's progress. More importantly, this change allows us to reclaim valuable class time to add an extra teaching session, specifically focusing on the areas where the children need the most support. Rest assured, we will continue to check all work to monitor completion and will still be recapping any tricky topics in class.
