Homework
Daily homework:
Reading
It is important that you are reading every night at home. Remember to ask your parent/carer to log your reading on Boom Reader so that we can see how much you are reading at home!
Maths
You can also practise your 2,3,5 and 10 times table for maths, make sure you impress your teacher when you can do them! You can also use Numbots to secure all your key stage 1 maths skills.
