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 Stone Age Britain and in Science we are learning about Food and Nutrition!

Maths

During Maths this term, we will begin with learning about Place Value. We will revisit the value of numbers up to 100, and then extend this to 1000. Later on, we will begin to look at addition and subtraction strategies.

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 story based on Stone Age Boy. Later on in the term, we will write an information leaflet and a poem.

P.E

Tuesday morning: Multiskills

Friday afternoon: Swimming

An outdoor PE kit is required on a Tuesday 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

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. Children will also be bring home RWI homework frequently so please check for log books or reading folders regularly. 

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.
