Key Information

HOMEWORK

Please ensure you are aware of the homework expectations for Elm class.

Your child will receive Dojo points for completing homework.

The expectation is:

  • Children will log onto Doodle Maths, English, Spelling and Times Tables every week.
  • The Doodle target is at least 50 stars a week.
  • Creative homework will be set weekly on Class Dojo.

READING AT HOME

“Reading is the gateway skill that makes all other learning possible” – Barack Obama.

Reading at home expectations:

  • Children should try to read every night.
  • Reading logs need to be signed when you have read with your child.
  • The children earn a Dojo points each time they read at home and they can spend these in the pride shop.
  • Reading books and reading logs need to be in school everyday as children will read their books during our daily DEAR sessions.
  • Children can change their scheme book or class library book when they have finished their current book.

OTHER INFORMATION

  • PE is on a Friday. Please make sure your child wears their correct PE kit into school and any jewellery is removed.
  • Please ensure your child’s belongings are labelled clearly with their name
  • Please provide them with a drinks bottle that they have in school everyday.
