Year 5 Autumn Term 1 Maths Home Learning
Each week, year 5 and year 6 children will have spellings to practise. Their lists will be in their purple spellings and maths facts books. Please ensure your child practises in these books. They are tested on their spellings weekly.
Children should also be reading regularly recording what books they have read in their new green reading record. Children should write the name of the book, the author, the date they start and finish the book. They should also write a review of the book they have read in the review box. Please challenge your children on some of the vocabulary they have read – this is an important part of their comprehension skills!

In preparation for SATS, Year 6 are set weekly homework – either Maths or English. Their homework is set in the CGP books given to them. The homework is set on a Friday and is to be handed in the following Friday. By setting homework, we are also preparing them for the routine of homework when they get to secondary school!
