Homework:
- Your child will bring home a reading book each week. Please read with your child regularly at home and record any reading in their yellow reading record.
- Children will be asked to complete a variety of activities for example, letter formation, spellings, remembering and writing a sentence. There may also be ‘tricky’ words to learn.
- Your child will be given homework from their ‘Read, Write, Inc’ teacher. This may be sounds to practise, words to sound out and write or tricky words.Your child will be given a small red homework book to write in or you may write in it to tell your child’s teacher what he/she has done at home.
- Complete homework in 'fun' ways e.g. spell words using magnetic letters, letters in the bath, write words in sand, bubbles in the bath, paint, chalk outside, shaving foam, water and paint brushes outdoors.
- Some children worry about getting it wrong. Encourage them to have a go. It may not be right everytime but that is okay! Sometimes children miss some sounds out in words, this is normal!
