Homework
Homework will be set on Friday to be completed by the following Wednesday. Ideally, we would love children to read everyday and be read to as often as possible to build up their vocabulary and understanding of texts. Spellings will be set and from time-to-time appropriate maths or further literacy set.
If you have any questions then please get in touch via email or class dojo.
