Home Learning
Home Learning
‘Home Learning’ takes a range of forms.
We expect all children to read at home every day. Independent older readers will wish to read for longer than the guidelines below. Even competent readers will benefit from reading to and discussing their reading with an adult.
All activities are designed to consolidate work learnt in class and to help prepare them for life beyond our school. Home Learning will usually be set via the SeeSaw App, or Microsoft Teams, depending on the age of your child/ren.
