Home Learning Expectations.
- All spellings are sent home on a Friday, with a short test the following Friday.
- Children should read at least 4 x a week, in addition to Reading Plus.
- Children unable to access Reading Plus will use Reading Eggs. These are children on purple book band or below.
- Year 6 use additional CGP revision books for reading, grammar and maths.
