Homework

We believe every child’s future is created every day both in and out of school.

Homework is important as it gives children additional time to practice skills taught in school. It also encourages independence, organisation and time management.

The benefits of homework include:

Providing opportunities for parents to be involved in their children’s learning.
Enabling children to practice and consolidate skills.
Broadening the context of learning and providing enrichment and extension.
Giving children responsibility for their own learning, which fosters independence.

We aim to create a positive attitude towards homework and encourage a growth mind set for all children. Our children have regularly gone above and beyond our expectations. They have particularly enjoyed homework projects where they have worked with parents or carers to discover new and exciting facts.

We are always here to support you and your children. If you have any questions or need further guidance please let us know.

The home learning platform is now working, and everything is now being set on there. To ensure you can view all the home learning that has been set, select ‘all’ or ‘all due’ in ‘status’ on the left once you have logged in. When you have access, most submissions can be done by taking a photo of a piece of work and uploading it. When mark schemes have been included, please submit a marked piece of work.

Weekly Project 1: Lockdown Listening

For everyone’s general use, you can find the Year 5 and 6 spelling list here.

Mr Coffield and Mr Fowler have prepared a recommended reading list of classic children’s literature from Bill’s New Frock to Northern Lights. Click here.

For those families in self-isolation, the Scouts have released a large bank of fun indoor activities (click here) and Lego have produced a ’30 days of Lego’ calendar – click here.

We will continue to post resources and ideas for activities here as we come across them, and we will continue to put any weekly projects up here as well, as they may be enjoyed by many children, not just Year 5s.
