Spellings for Spring Term 2 2019
20 Apr 2018
Homework is important as it helps your child to practise the skills they have learnt in school.
Encouraging and supporting them to complete it on time will ensure they understand everything that is being taught in lessons.
We will set Maths, Comprehension and Spellings every Friday. This is a key part of your child’s learning and we expect it to be completed and handed in by the following Thursday. Spelling tests will also be on Thursdays.
If your child is not sure about the homework, they can attend Homework Club on Mondays at 12.45 or Tuesdays after school at 3:30.

This term we are looking at Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone by J.K Rowling. This half term homework will be done slightly differently. There will still be weekly spelling words and maths but instead of comprehension students will be asked to complete two of the following squares from the Harry Potter choice board. They will have the rest of the term to complete the tasks and it will be due in the last week (Thursday 4th April) of term.
