Homework

Reading- all children should read daily as part of their homework. They need to read to an adult at least three times a week which is to be recorded in their planner.
Spellings- Spellings are tested once a fortnight on a Thursday. A new page and spellings are set every other week, also on a Thursday.
Mathematics -All children have their Abacus and MyMaths Website username and password glued in the front of their planner. Maths homework will be set every Friday. They will have a week to complete it. All work set are reinforcement activities from the area of Maths studied during the week.
Times tables- Children will be tested weekly on their multiplication knowledge. We are looking for accuracy and speed of recall.
Other homework- Occasionally other homework may be set and this should be recorded in their planners.

Maths-
We are starting to use a wonderful new website in Year 5 for their online homework. Each child has a letter with their personal username and password stapled into their planner.
They can use this website to complete set homework and also practise any areas of Maths they feel unsure of. I have set all the children some work on decimals to start with.
