Homework
In Year 1 your child will be expected to complete reading, maths and spelling homework every week:
Reading - Reading books will be changed every Wednesday. All children will bring home a reading book with sounds they have been learning in phonics that week. Children will bring home a book every Friday and should read over the weekend before returning on Wednesday. Children will be familiar with the sounds in the book so should be encouraged to read with increasing speed.
Maths - Your child will have a bingo sheet to complete for the whole half term.
Spelling - Children will be set weekly Spelling Shed homework which they can complete by using their own unique spelling login found in the front of their reading log.
