Spellings and Reading
Please help your children to practise their spellings at home. We have a spelling test every Friday.
Your child's book change day is every Friday. Bookbags should be in school everyday, but especially on a Friday. You can also access your child's phonic reading book online through Oxford Owl and your login details are in the front of your child's yellow reading record.
Our expectation is for you to listen to your child read at least 3 times a week. Please record each read in your child's reading record and we will be checking these every Friday when we change books. The children will be working towards reading awards which they will be presented with in assembly.
Phonics
Phonics is a very important part of our learning. Here are some useful links to activities you can do with your child at home to support them in their reading and writing.
Here is a video to help you with how each sound is said:
There are a few free games on here which are always popular with kids!
This link will take you to the Gov.uk site where they have a large collection of previous test papers.
