Additionally, the children will be given homework projects weekly relating to one of our foundation subjects.
Other homework expectations:
- Reading: you should read every day at home for at least 10 minutes. Please read with a parent or sibling if you can and ask them to write a comment in your reading record.
- Maths: TT Rockstars - spend 10-15 minutes each day practising your times tables! Knowing your timetables is essential in maths as it provides the foundation that many of our maths concepts build upon.
