Home learning reminder!

Hi Parents/Carers,

Just a wee note about home learning and what would benefit the children most. First of all, a big thanks to you because your ongoing support is very much appreciated! One of the things that would benefit the children most in their studies at school is to have obtained an accurate, rapid recall of all multiplication facts. We have to apply these skills in increasingly complex calculations in class and, at this point, some children are still working towards recall of these. Likewise, swift number bond recall within 20 is a necessity at this point. There are many sites to aid this such as Hit the Button. Even 5 minutes a night would make a difference in this area for some.

Having opportunities to read aloud at home is so important too. Our new novel study will be going home this week and I’d love for the children to have the chance to build fluency and expression at home. In class we have also been focusing on achieving appropriate volume and projecting our voices when reading/discussing.

I have also issued a European country project for this term that is detailed within the childrens’ homework jotters. These projects can be as involved or brief as time permits.

Thanks again for your support,

Miss McAnally
