Homework in year 1

Reading 

Reading will be your daily homework. Please read regularly with your child at a time that suits you both - this can be one sentence, 5 minutes, a few phonics words.

We expect Reading Record books to be in school daily so that we can check on your child’s progress. We will be giving out Dojo points for each completed page in their reading record book!

We will aim to change your child’s phonic and book banded books on a Wednesday, so please ensure they are both returned that day.

Maths

There will not be any set homework, but any opportunity you have to count to 10, to 20, to 50 and backwards please do so. Playing quick games of one more/one less, guess my number, number recognition and ordering, all help the children's familiarity and speed with number counting.

Spellings

Spelling sheets will be sent home on the first Wednesday for the term. There is no pressure on completing these, but doing more practice at home will help the children's spelling.
