Homework Expectations

Homework Expectations in YEAR 5

 

Children in Year 5 will receive homework, although not necessarily every night. This will vary from week to week and will be recorded in their homework diary for you to access. Some will take the form of ‘creative homework’ which will be explained in due course and some will be weekly, fortnightly or half-termly homework, like Maths, Spellings and KIRFS etc.

We encourage the children to read at home as much as possible, both on their own and with an adult – this should be recorded in their Home/School Journal – our hope is for at least 5 entries/comments a week. Our suggestion is twice with an adult and three times independently. However, this ratio may vary depending on the needs of your child.
