Reading Passport

Your child will have a reading passport to take home with them, to enable them to complete their reading challenge. This includes completing book reviews: your child's teacher will give them templates but it is also okay to get creative and make your own! Here are a few ideas and a copy of the passport itself:

MyMaths Home Learning

Tasks are set on MyMaths to support the work children are undertaking in class. Every child has their own login, and these can be given by your child's class teacher. The link to MyMaths is: https://www.mymaths.co.uk/

Handwriting

Early Years & Year 1

To progress in their handwriting, children must have 'functional pencil grasp'. That means that they hold their pencil, pen, or implement in the correct way. It is very important you correct this when your child draws, writes or paints at home- you can read top tips here.

In the Early Years and Year 1, the children focus on letter formation based on Read Write Inc., using images and words to encourage correct letter formation. You can watch videos of each correct letter formation here.

Another big focus at this age is finger spacing. Your child should use their finger to remind them to leave a proper space after every word.

Year 2-6

We use the programme Letterjoin for our children's handwriting for Year 2 -6. You can access this programme online at home!

To log in, you will need our school login details:

Spelling Lists

Each year group has a set of key vocabulary that children are expected to spell by the end of the year. We encourage you to practise these words together, alongside discussing the spelling patterns they are learning in school.

How can I help my child with phonics?

The most important thing you can do is read the phonetically decodable books (books which can be read by a child using their phonic knowledge) which are sent home with your child. To check you are pronouncing the sounds correctly, please watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkXcabDUg7Q
