Home Learning

Overview

After much research, we believe that the best use of home learning time for primary age children is developing reading and practising key number facts in maths.

Year 6 Revision

Children in year 6 will also carry out revision of the curriculum, as home work, in preparation for the end of Key Stage 2 SATs tests. This is explained to parents and resources are provided in a meeting.

Reading at Home

Children who read regularly at home at are a distinct advantage. 

At Huntingtree Primary School, we encourage home reading through our provision of two home reading books - which are changed at least once a week (depending on length of book, etc)

For further details about reading, please follow the link to our Curriculum - English - Reading section:

At key points in the year, parents are given resources that support their child with the types of questions where assessments have shown to be weaknesses. Below is a copy of the comprehension bookmarks and the maths basic skills sheets that have been used.
