Homework links - Spelling Shed & Timestable Rockstars
At school we use Spelling Shed and Timestable Rockstars to develop key learning in spelling and times table facts. We allocate some of our weekly curriculum time to teach this but ask parents to support this area of learning by encouraging children to engage well with homework.
All children have regular homework. We are aware that many children have activities that they attend outside of school, and so with this in mind the homework focuses on reading, spellings (spellingshed) and timestables (timestables Rockstars) so that it is manageable. The homework expectations are as follows:
Year 3 & 4 | Year 5 & 6 |
3 x 20 min reading sessions - parents to sign in Reading diary | 3 x 20min reading sessions - parents to sign in Reading diary |
10 minutes on Timestable Rockstars | 15 minutes on Timestable Rockstars |

Optional tasks | Additional Maths/SPAG SATS programs (Yr6) |
