To help your child at home, you are asked to complete home learning each week:

• Reading at least three times a week and recording this on your Boom Reader account
• Rehearsing the phonics sounds on the flashcards your child comes home with (note that this is not applicable to all children)
• Rehearsing spellings (this happens when the children are ready) – please keep the file in your child’s book bag, we will give them a new sheet each Monday and you will be able to see their scores in the weekly spelling test as soon as they are ready to learn spellings.

Take a look at the RKE sheets below - these relate to our current learning in school.  Your child should already know the R (Remember) section as this relates to previous learning that they have completed.  The K (Know) section focusses on the learning that they will do within this unit of work.  The E (Explore) section has some ideas that you could do or discuss at home to support learning.  If your child is finding it hard to recall their prior learning, you might be asked to support this at home to help them be ready for the new learning that they are about to complete.
