​Home Fluency

Each week, we encourage children to read at least 5 times. They should always bring their Reading Diary into school to be checked and in case they read with an adult in school. Children will also be given a few spellings and maths facts each week. These will be introduced in school but can be practiced in the back of their Home Fluency book at home. They will be tested once a week in the front of their Home Fluency books. We encourage children to continue to practice spellings and maths facts for two further weeks as a recap. This supports their longer term memory.
