Welcome back to school everyone! We are going to have lots of fun this term and learn about many new things. In History, we will be learning about Ancient Egypt. In Art, we will be using clay to make 3-D sculptures.
Maths
During Maths this term, we will be continuing to become fluent with our times tables. Later on, we will begin to look at measurement.
As in all years, times tables are extremely important so we encourage children to practice their fluency daily.
English
In writing this term, we will be writing a non-chronological report about earthquakes! Later on, we will begin to write our own stories based on Wolves in the Walls.
P.E
Wednesday afternoon: Netball
Friday morning: Quicksticks
An outdoor PE kit is required on a Wednesday which includes jogging bottoms, t-shirt, jumper/hoody and trainers. We recommend bringing in a carrier bag too as trainers are often muddy and covered in grass, so will not be able to be worn in the classroom.
Homework
As a school we have moved over to using Seesaw for homework. We will be setting one piece of homework every week for your child to complete using their personal Seesaw log in. In addition to this, we would like children to be reading to an adult at home daily. When you have heard your child read, please write in their reading diary. Please do get in touch if you have any questions regarding homework. Homework will be set on Seesaw on a Friday and is due back the following Friday.
Times Tables Rockstars (TTR) is an excellent way to encourage children to learn their times tables, we are focusing on consolidating previous times tables this term. All children have been given their log ins and are able to log in and play. Please encourage your child to play daily!
We will complete weekly times table tests in class and children will receive certificates when they complete a band. There are 20 bands in total and children will be working towards getting them all by the time they finish Year 6!
Reading books will be changed once the child has finished reading their book. There is a basket in the classroom for children to put their book in. Please ensure your child is bringing in their reading diary and reading book everyday as there is ample opportunity for children to read in class.
