Homework

This year, we have a new reading incentive in place and it is called 'Takeaway Treats'. You child has been given a loyalty card and in order to earn stamps, they must read for the amount of times shown for each half term. This is a copy of the loyalty card:

Please log any reading onto Boom Reader, which will be checked weekly by your child's class teacher.

We also encourage the use of TT Rockstars, which again, your child has a log in for and a copy of this has been sent home with your child. Every week, there will be battles and dojos will be given to children who complete time on this app at home. Research shows that

spending 15 minutes on TT Rockstars at least three times a week supports your child with developing their multiplication fact recall. You will find links to these at the bottom of this page.

Madame Baker has lots of fun activities planned for the Year 6 pupils this year!

Online Safety

Good To Be Green

At River View, we follow the 'Good to be Green' behaviour system. All pupils begin the day on green. Children who follow the classroom/school rules and values stay on green. If they do not, the following steps occur:

• First reminder/verbal warning
• 'Stop & think' card is issued
• Yellow card is issued. 
• Red card is issued.

If a 'stop and think' or yellow card is issued, children have ten minutes to correct their behaviour in order to return to green. Restorative conversations will take place if a red card is issued; parents will be notified of red cards either in person or by telephone call and a copy of the restorative conversation will be emailed home on the day that the card was issued.

Please consult our behaviour policy in the first instance should you have any further questions.
