Homework Policy - The Farnley Academy
 

 

This will be sent through DoJo on on a Friday, it will be linked to class topics or an activity linked to what the children will be learning the following week. This could be a written or verbal task.  

We would appreciate your support in helping your child learn their weekly spellings, practise their times tables and reading with them daily. 

 

Additional Ideas for Homework:

Activities for Reading

  • At least 10 minutes of daily reading (this should be recorded in homework diaries).  For depth of understanding and increased fluency, we actively encourage you to re-read a book several times, asking questions to check your child's comprehension of what they are reading.

Activities for Spelling

  • Practise your child’s weekly spelling list, which is on our Class 3 Spelling page.
  • Practise the Year 3/4 Statutory spelling list, which can also be found on our class spelling page.
  • Practise your child’s weekly spellings both verbally and in written forms.
  • Login to Spelling Shed and play a variety of games to help practise this week's spellings. 

Activities for Maths

  • Log on to TTRS to practise speedy recall of multiplication and division facts.
  • Go onto our class 3 page and download your child's Multiplication Olympics level and practise all of the sums.
