Spelling: to be learnt and tested on a weekly basis, all spellings are listed on a sheet in the homework book.
Reading: children should read to an adult at least three times a week, with the reading record book being completed in the appropriate way and returned to school on a daily basis.
Geography and science: set at the beginning of the half term, and returned to school by Monday 5th February.
