Eisteddfodd Poem

Hi all, sorry there was some technical difficulties this weekend meaning the new version of the page didn't save. I'm very sorry about this.

Please make sure your child is learning a poem for our first round of Eisteddfodd poems this Friday. 

Attached are some suggestions. 

Core Subject Information

Maths

This week we will be learning about measurement as we delve into the world of multiplication, this week we are looking at multiples of 6,7 and 9. Please make sure that when you are talking to the children about multiplying by 10 or 100 you don't just say and a 0 on as this can confuse them when we come to decimals. 

English

This week we will be learning about Diwali as we create our own fact files. 

Topic

This week our topic is Geography as we learn all about our local area. 

P.E

We now have P.E three times a week. The children need their P.E kit on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays but should only come into school wearing their P.E kit on Tuesday and Thursday, as P.E is after lunch on Monday. 

Homework, Spellings, and Reading logs.

Maths

Maths homework will now be both on DoodleMaths and a physical booklet. Children will also be doing weekly times table tests this week is the 7  times tables, in which we focus on a table for a week and then test it on the Thursday. 

Reading

Reading is an important skill, it expands our imagination and can bring us lots of enjoyment. As a school we want to encourage and  develop a love of reading for all of our pupils. To encourage this, we award a termly reading badge to those children who read at least 4 x a week over a 10 week period. Please record any reading in the Partnership book. 

To further inspire the children we will be following a Harry Potter inspired reading challenge in which the children are given a different topic each fortnight. 

Termly Homework

Coming soon

Spelling

Next weeks spellings are week 8. 

Spellings will be tested each Friday, results may not come back straight away, but will be entered into the Partnership book. 

Please make sure your child can spelling common words such as like, had, with, clothes.
