Homework

Homework expectations

 

Each week children are expected to complete the following:

 

  • At least 3 reads (this must be recorded in your child’s diary).
  • At least 15 minutes a week on Times Table Rockstars.
  • At least 10 games on Spelling Shed.

 

Your child will have their log in and password for both Times table Rockstars and Spelling Shed in the front of their reading diary.

 

The above is the minimum weekly expectation and of course any extra practice will enhance your child’s learning and progress.

 

Reluctant readers?

 

We understand that not all children will share the same enthusiasm when it comes to reading, however there are several things you can do to help:

  • Don’t make it into a battle!
  • Share books with your child – it doesn’t always have to be them reading. You could take turns to read sections of a book or read to your child and then discuss the book with them.
  • Discuss books that your child likes and encourage them to choose and read books that interest them.
  • Join and visit our local library!

Problems with completing homework

 

If for any reason your child is having difficulty completing any of their homework, please contact your child’s class teacher. We are happy to provide opportunities for children to complete their Times table Rockstars and Spelling Shed in school if access is an issue. Likewise, we can provide printable versions for both.
