Home Learning - Reading, Spellings and Times Tables

For more detailed information please click these links:

Our Home Learning:

 

Check out the 'Home Learning Activities' for this half-term in your Year 3 & 4 Home Learning Book /or/ Year 5 & 6 Home Learning Record Sheet (& remember all your logins, usernames and passwords are in there too!)

 

There are CORE weekly tasks to do (reading and spellings) plus a range of other activities to complete:

 

Year 5 & 6 have Mirodo activities allocated to them (online).

 

Year 3 & 4 have 'fluency activities' allocated to them. These activities need to be practised and written in your Home Learning Book. 

 

On the Mundy CofE Junior School home learning webpage you can access the Year 3 & 4 /or/ Year 5 & 6 Home Learning Zones (at the bottom of this webpage) to look at any resources, find out further details and access weblinks that you may need to complete your home learning activities. 

 

We appreciate that you all lead busy lives and have tried to make the home learning purposeful, manageable and flexible. Please can we ask that your child's Home Learning is handed in at the end of each half-term (you don't need to hand it in each week). 

 

Weekly Tasks:

 

Spellings: 

Practise your current 'set' of 5 spelling words from your 'Super Spelling' booklet, which will be tested through the week. You can look at all of our Super Spelling booklets at  home by clicking the spelling link at the top of this page.

 

Reading: 

Each time an adult listens to you read, please record this on your Booklog Bookmark (and tick your home learning sheet) - these will add up towards achieving your 'Rainbow Reading Certificates' -  ALL reading can be recorded not just your school reading book.

 

We encourage Parents & Carers to listen to your child reading for at least 5 minutes each day, or as many times as you can each week.
