Each week your child will have 6 assignments on Reading Plus to complete. These may be a mixture of visual skills, vocabulary or reading comprehension. Your child needs to be aiming for a reading speed of 185 words per minute and 80-100% accuracy rate on their reading comprehensions, the more your child uses the programme the more confident they become as a fluent reader.
This week’s spellings are shoulder, smoulder, mould, thrown, known, blown, window, shallow, soul and poultry. They have been placed on EdShed and are available to access. We recommend 5 minutes each day to support them with learning their unique spelling patterns. These are words the children need to be using regularly in their writing as they will be assessed against them each time they complete a piece of written work.
Your child will have access to TTRS, this week we will be checking your child’s Studio. What type of rock status will you achieve? Also, this week we are in a battle against year 5 and England Rocks begins. Enjoy the battling year 6, who will reign champion? 🙂
All children will receive their CGP books for GPS, Maths and Reading they will be expected to complete Set B, Test 1. Each test is designed to be completed in 10 minutes. If you child attends homework club, they will gain adult support to complete these as they are structured in the same way as SATs questions.
Homework Club is on every Tuesday 3.20-4pm. If your child already has permission to walk home, they are able to walk home from Homework Club; however, if you child is collected normally at 3.20pm, they will also need collecting at 4pm. Please sign up at the school office to ensure we are aware of your child’s attendance.
All children are able to bring a small snack to keep them going e.g. fruit, biscuit bar or a packet of crisps. Please remember this is only a small snack and must be nut free. The focus of the session is for your child to complete all homework with the opportunity for teacher support 🙂
