Welcome to Rabbits

Key information

**Homework***

Children will receive weekly homework every Monday. This will alternate between Maths and English and will either link to something that the children are learning or will cover learning that they need to consolidate. Homework needs to be returned by the following Monday.

**Spellings**

Children will receive new spellings on a Friday. They will bring home a spelling sheet to help them practise and we will then have our spelling tests on the following Friday. Spelling Shed is a great way to learn these at home. Children’s logins should be in their reading diary.

**Reading**

Children are expected to read at home 5 times a week and this should be signed by parents at the end of the week. I will be checking reading diaries on a Monday so please ensure these are kept up to date. Children will receive house points and reading rewards for this!

**Times Tables**

Your children should have their Times Table Rockstars logins stuck in their reading diaries. It is so important to know your times tables quickly and accurately! We will have class competitions and times table champions will be celebrated in class.

Rabbits Class Reading Books

Below are the whole class reading books that we are reading this year. It would be great to avoid reading these with your children to avoid any spoilers! Don’t worry if you’ve already read them of course!
