~ Homework in Year 5 ~

• Homework is set on a Friday and due back in on a Wednesday morning.  
• Some work can be printed out for children but some work is set on an online format and must be completed on a computer/tablet or smartphone.  We encourage the children to be independent and access their homework online due to the digital age we live in and to emphasise the importance of good computer literacy.
• If children struggle with aspects of their homework, they can ask Miss Low or Mrs Smith for help on a Monday or Tuesday.
• If homework is incomplete on a Wednesday morning, this will be completed during break time or lunch time, where best appropriate.
• Spellings are also given out on Monday and are tested on the following Monday morning.
• Parents/carers are expected to support with home reading and where possible, complete your child's reading record with a small comment and signature to support this. We will check through reading records on a weekly basis.

Hi Year 5, 

I hope that you are enjoying the sunshine safely and keeping cool at home. If you would like to do some work whilst you are in the cool or shade, here are some suggested activities for you to do:

* MyMaths work

* TTRockstars

* Read for pleasure or your banded reading book for at least 20 minutes

*Practise this week's spelling, which are: conscience, conscious, controversy, convenience

*Write a haiku inspired by the weather

*Draw a detailed sketch of an object from your house or in your garden – really look closely at it and try to draw it in as much detail as possible.

Thank you for your continued support in ensuring your child is prepared for any homework expectations.
