Homework for both Year 1 and 2 will consist of:
- Reading – Reading at home is extremely important for children’s fluency, comprehension and love of reading. Please read at least five times and week and record it in children’s reading diaries. Books will be changed once per week on a Monday or a Tuesday. Children who have read 5 times a week will receive a house token to put towards their house's points.
- Spelling practice - Please learn to spell and read the weekly spellings at home. Spelling Tests will consist of 5 common exception words and will be sent out weekly. Children will be tested on a Monday or Tuesday and scores will be recorded in children's reading diaries.
In June, Year 1 will take part in a Phonics Screening Check. They will be required to read 20 real and 20 psuedo words containing the sounds that we have been learning in school.
