Homework
Your child will bring their homework home every Monday and should return it the following Monday. This will usually alternate between maths and English/grammar (SPAG). Homework may be used to support other areas of the curriculum too. We politely request that parents mark the work with their child so that any misconceptions can be addressed when returned to school. If they are struggling with any aspects please just write a note on the homework.
Spellings
Spellings will be tested each week on Monday and the new list will be given out following the weekly test. A spelling book will also be sent home with the spellings in.

Thursday 6 March 2025 Skylarks World Book Day What a wonderful World Book Day we have had! Dressing up, reading with our buddies in Year 5, class stories, audio books and sharing our favourite reading experiences have been some of the highlights of our day. The children's costumes were fabulously creative and it was so nice to see such a range of story characters within the class. We had Heidi, Sonic, superheroes, princesses, Willy Wonka, the frog from 'Oi Frog' and many more besides! Well done on your fantastic costumes Skylarks!
