Downs Junior Spelling Toolkit
Homework
We upload our homework grid to Seesaw for the children to respond to each half term. We strongly encourage parents to sign up to Seesaw so you can view this and other work that your child uploads from class (and add likes and comments!).
Alongside these homework tasks, we strongly encourage children to spend at least 20 minutes a day reading - preferably to an adult - as well as doing regular times table practice and completion of the spelling tasks (uploaded to Seesaw every week in Years 3 and 4 and fortnightly in Years 5 and 6).

Year 3
We do not set homework for Year 3 in the first half term, but we would recommend daily reading of at least 20 minutes, preferably to an adult.
We strongly encourage all parents to sign up to our learning platform (Seesaw) so you can view photos and work that your child may upload from school (and add likes and comments!).
