Every child is expected to access Numbots for 60 minutes each week, read at home at least 3 times per week and log this on Boom Reader. They also need to learn their spellings each week. These can be bought into school or a photo of the work sent through the class dojo.
You will be informed through class dojo about any homework set as a 2Do on Purple Mash. This will have a completion date and the work will need to be saved, so that it can be marked and dojos awarded.

It is vitally important that you support your child with their education at home, which will help them to succeed.
All children should have their reading books in their book bags every day, so that we can read with them when the opportunity arises.
