Home Learning
As we enter a rather strange stage here are some activties to do at home to continue your child's learning. We suggest some of the activities should be practised daily and so this list will stay the same. We will also put other activities on the website that will change each week, so please check the website. Additionally we have also added a list of webiste that you can use to support your child's learning.
Many families are aiming to do 2 hours a day. These are very unusual times and I know many of you are also trying to work from home. Please don't worry if you are doing less than this and there is no expectation to complete all of the tasks each week. Try to do some phonics/ spelling, reading, writing and maths each day but I appreciate that some days this cannot happen. Remember that board games, craft, cooking and playing in the garden can also incorporate a lot of valuable learning. For those of you who would like some additional activities, there are some handy home learning packs for each year group on twinkl.co.uk.
Daily Activities
- 99 club - Please download the sheet from our website under curriculum, 99 club. Your child will know which 99 club they are on.
- Statutory spellings - Your child has been given a sheet with their personal statutory spellings on them. If your child has misplaced this sheet here is a generic list.
High Frequency Words Year 3 and 4.pdf
High Frequency Words Year 5 and 6.pdf
- Daily Reading. It doesn't have to be a reading book it could be a newspaper article leaflet, magazine or comic
- Battle of the books. We appreciate you may finish the book you are on so please see the list below.
- Mental maths. Using number cards 1 - 20 (these can just be 20 pieces of paper with a number between 1 and 20 written on them) get the children to choose 2 and add them together. How many can they do in 30sec. Repeat this with subtraction. Can you beat your previous time? To try and challenge yourself try by turning the number/s into multiples of 10.
- Multiplication tables practice- please find the document below. They have 2min to complete each test.
In addition, the BBC Dance Mat Typing programme is a really useful tool and website for the chidlren to practice and improve their typing speed and precision.

BRITISH VALUE
This term our British value is Mutual Respect
The video:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0698c9y
Pupils Amelie and Shaeya interview children and adults from their school community to find out what the word 'respect' means to them. Their interviewees offer different ideas on the word, including: 'showing tolerance', 'listening to others', 'being open to their opinions and beliefs', friends'. All the interviewees agree that it's important to treat others with thoughtfulness and consideration, in just the way that we would wish to be treated ourselves.
Activity - You could make a poster to promote Mutual Respect with the quote
'...treat others how we'd like to be treated ourselves.'
