Homework
Homework Mats
Every half term, your child will be given a 'homework mat' which includes lots of exciting things for your child to do at home during the half term holiday.
Your child will be able to complete this in their brown homework book.
Please see below when homework will be given out and when your child needs to return it to their class teacher.

Spellings
Spellings for the week will be sent out on a Friday. This does not need to be returned, as pupils will be assessed in school.
TTRS & Numbots
Your child can also access TTRS and Numbots at home to help with their times tables and number skills. These logins will be stuck inside your child's school reading record to help keep them safe.
Reading
At Northbury we want children to develop a 'love of reading'. To maximise our pupil reading opportunities we have the following in place to encourage pupils to read:
Monday - weekly changing of 'RWI book bag book'
Monday and Friday - weekly changing of 'banded reading book'
Thursday/Friday - Library book's are changed fortnightly depending on your child's library visit day.
BUG CLUB - Your child can access a range of texts linked to their reading ability at any time via Bug Club. Please see your child's class teacher if you need support accessing this platform.
We have given your child a 'reading diary' to help you track and comment on your child's reading at home. Please complete this at least once a week.
To ensure that books are kept in good condition we encourage you to use a school bookbag. Please note: if your child does not bring in their book bag they will be unable to take home or change their books.
