  • A spelling or grammar activity, designed to support, practise or revisit something we have learned in class will be given weekly. Every other week, a spelling list will be given in preparation for a test the following week.
  • In Maths, the children will be given a Maths activity linked to class work one week and the next a multiplication focused task, either using Times Table Rockstars or an activity sheet.
