Literacy – Spelling
Due to the weather last week causing a great deal of absence, the spelling homework will continue into next week also. This is the homework set for last week….
There are no specific set spelling words this week. Instead we will each be focusing on words we personally and continually spell wrong in our written class work, so each pupil’s list may look very different. At home, if there are any words you know you spell wrong (or if you are the parent/carer reading this, that you know your child spells wrong) then please practise them at home, as this will improve general spelling within the class.
Below are some websites which might give you inspiration for words to practise:

Please note that all children checked their writing jotters and recorded words which they had spelled incorrectly in their work. These should be practised and added to the original list you compiled at home. The aim is to give each child their own personal spelling test on their own words, over the course of the following week.
Maths
This week please focus on times table practise of certain tables you find tricky (think back to the maths lesson with Mrs Keith last week). Use this link to access some fun multiplication games:
