Homework

•  Regular reading at home is the most important element, helping children develop vocabulary, comprehension, fluency and a lifelong enjoyment of books.

• Short practice tasks such as learning spellings support children in applying accurate spelling in their writing.

• Practising times tables and key number facts helps children build fluency and confidence in mathematics.

• Occasional theme-based ‘learning log’ tasks may be set to encourage creativity, curiosity and independent research linked to the class topic.
