What is our class text for this half-Term?
This half-term, we will be reading "I was a rat!" By Phillip Pullman and "James and the Giant Peach" By Roald Dahl.
What are the school homework expectations?
- Reading: Please ensure your child is reading at least 3 times a week at home and that their home-school reading books are signed each week. You’re also welcome to attend Reading Lair to complete this together!
- DoodleMaths and DoodleSpell: Children should aim to stay in their Green Zone, which means completing approximately 40 minutes of practice each week. Spelling units can be found below.
- Silver Reading Challenge: Encourage your child to work toward their Silver Reading Challenges, which are located at the back of their home-school book.
- Class Blog: Check the class blog regularly to keep up with everything we’re doing in school!
