Lower Junior Home Learning
Lower Junior Home Learning
Every Friday we will upload everything you need for the following week's lessons to our Blog.
You can expect four links to fhe following documents:
- a timetable, including a link to a weekly assembly
- a word document detailing the English and maths lessons
- a reading comprehension text with questions and answers. Every child needs to complete level 2 for Guided Reading unless a teacher has contacted you to let you know otherwise.
- a word document explaining the afternoon lessons for the week
There may be extra documents if these are required for the lessons that week.
These documents will include links to video lessons, where available.

Additional Resources for Lower Junior Children
Attached at the base of this page are some the additional generic activities that were already for parents and carers to do with their children in Lower Junior classes.
Reading at Home
For children who are using the school reading scheme you’ll already be familiar with which colour band your child is reading within. We would recommend signing up for a free account on www.OxfordOwl.co.uk where you will be able to access a wide range of texts to read for free online which are organised into age range, level and genre.
We would ask that you read within the colour band that your child is currently on, with a focus on discussing the text and asking a range of questions to assess your child’s understanding of the text. Question prompts have been provided in the home learning packs to support you with this.
