Year 5 / 6 pupils will have homework each week.

Children are given homework weekly from the CGP Practice books. The children have a week to complete each piece of homework and should ensure that they have the book in school on the correct day:

Tuesdays: Grammar and Punctuation homework

Fridays: Maths homework

We also encourage children to read as often as possible and complete their reading diary. These should be brought to school every day and will be checked in class each week.

Spelling sessions are timetabled throughout the week and ensure that the children have the opportunity to explore and apply the spelling pattern that they are learning. However, children are also able to access Spelling Bug interactive games at home to consolidate their learning. Logins for this can be found in planners. The year 5/6 statutory spellings are also shown below. These will be practised in school throughout the year but can also be used for additional practice at home.

There is also a word mat of 200 high frequency words if this is something you have been practising in class as an alternative to the spelling list. Pick the first ten to practise in the first week and replace any you get correct with the next word in the spelling list for the following week.
