Children at St Teresa's should be completing three main activities each week: 

• Read at home regularly. Children who read at least five times a week, and record this in their reading records, receive a raffle ticket to be in with a chance of winning the book box for the week. 

• Times Table Rock Stars.  A few minutes a day is ideal. (Link to the website below)

• Spelling Shed: A few minutes each day gets the best results. Complete the assignments set by your teacher and then you can play additional games. (Link to the website below)

You can further support your child at home with their learning by completing these activities. These are not compulsory and do not need to be brought to school. They are suggestions for parents that might want to do more at home.

• Read to your child! No matter what age, it is beneficial to have books read aloud to them. 

• Practise and learn key spellings (Link/image to statutory spellings below)

• Accelerated Reader articles can be accessed at home. Children can choose articles to read and quiz on. (Link to AR below)

• Find out more about current learning (see curriculum newsletters) BBC History, Geography, Science
