Spellings and KIRF's Homework
Spellings - Below you will find the spelling lists for this year. These lists are also set as weekly assignments on Spelling Shed which I encourage the children to use to learn their spellings as well as on paper.
KIRF's - Below you will also find the KIRF's Homework for this year - this includes times tables.
At the end of each half term the Spelling and KIRF's sheets will need returning to school with a parental signature to show that you acknowledge that your child in practising their spellings and times tables each week. Thank you.
KIRF's - Key Instant Recall Facts - The pupils have learnt these over the whole year and now is the time for them to consolidate and practise them as a form of revision.
