Home Learning
At Shipton Bellinger, we provide opportunities for children to continue their learning and share experiences at home. Each week, we provide a series of suggested tasks. We always promote daily reading as well as spelling. There is also a writing, maths or creative task, extended with a challenge activity. Your child will be provided with a paper copy of the home learning each Monday, which is stuck into their home learning book. A copy is also shared on Google Classroom.
We also utilise Spelling Shed and Times Table Rockstars as a way of engaging our pupils into fun, exciting activities that develops a thirst for learning. The children are set learning that is appropriate for their age and stage. They are then able to complete a range of activities to boost their knowledge interactively.
