HOME LEARNING

Year 2/3 children will receive three set home learning activities a week. 

1. Spellings  

2. TTRockstars

3. Reading (reading at least 3 times a week)

We all know it is very important that the children are reading at home as much as possible. The children are rewarded as 'Reading Champions' if they read at home at least 3 times each week.

It is critical that adults at home are checking the reading champion books and marking their child's reading as this will support them with their learning in school and help them with their phonics knowledge.

Each Friday we will send a new learning home. These should be returned by following Thursday ready for marking. Dojo points will also be rewarded for competed home learning. 

 Extra home learning may be given linked to a particular subject learnt during school this week. This could be History, Geography, Science, RE, PSHE or DT. 

 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Our Library day is Friday. Please take the time to enjoy the book borrowed from school and make sure it is returned in time to be swapped out. These books are for enjoyment so may not be at the same level of your child's star reader level.

 

P.E.

Please note we have PE on a Monday and Tuesday, so please remember to send your child into school dressed in their full PE kit on this day. Please ensure your child has their white t-shirt, black shorts or tracksuit bottoms and black jumper or school jumper. Hair should be tied up and jewellery removed on this day so that they are ready and safe to take part.

Thank you for your cooperation.
