| When is homework sent out? | Grid homework will be sent out this week, it is set every half term. The due date is Friday 23rd October, when we will celebrate the whole school’s amazing homework that has been completed. |
| What homework is set? | Spelling homework is available on Edshed.
Weekly Maths homework will be uploaded onto Edshed to help children with their skills and fluency. |
| What are procedures for reading books? | A reading book and pack will be sent home with your child every Friday.
When they have finished reading it, they need to bring it back in to school and it will be changed. Please hand it back on Thursday or Friday, as we will not be able to change it on other days due to timetabling. |
| When are PE days? | Please make sure your child brings in their labelled PE kit for the half term; they will get changed in the classroom. This is because practising getting changed is an important life skill. |
| What do children wear for PE? | The PE kit is a coloured house t-shirt (red, green, yellow or blue depending on house), black shorts and black pumps or trainers. Please make sure your child has their full labelled PE kit in school to avoid missing out on PE lessons. |
| What are the rewards for hard work and good behaviour?
|
Whole class points to be earned; when 100 are earned the class will have a treat.
All children can earn house-points for their house and for themselves, these will be recorded in class. Each day there will be a star of the day who will be awarded a sticker and a small prize. Children who show exceptional behaviour, manners and attitude to learning in the classroom and around the school will be awarded a golden ticket. There is a Golden Ticket draw every Friday during Smile Assembly. |
| What are the consequences for lack of effort and poor behaviour? | Behaviour will be scored as green – amber red on a daily basis, which will be recorded privately by the class teacher.
Letters will be sent home for children with a red 3 times in one week. |
