A few reminders...

Thursday and Fridays are our PE days. Please send your child with appropriate labelled PE kit.
Spellings and spelling homework is given (and tested) every week on Friday morning with House points awarded for full marks or outstanding effort.
This will be set through spelling shed, you will find your child's login for this in the back of their diary.
Maths homework is to learn all times tables that are not already known. If you know all of them to 12x12
Please use Microsoft Teams for the most current updates. Your child will have a login.

Reading Homework

We aim for every child to read at least three times a week, and in 2D, for the childrens' sakes, we very much see this as a minimum. Please sign planners, once you have heard your child read. If your child reads 3 times a week they will be rewarded with a stamp in the front of their diary. An adult in school will sign and date this square. We will reward your child with reading pins (bronze, silver and gold) and a small prize, as they accumulate the required amount of squares. If your child is a fluent reader, they can read independently and get an adult to sign their diary to confirm this. We want to be reading champions every week so please help us as much as possible.

Summer Term!

During the Summer term, our main topic is called, ‘Earth and Beyond’. In geography, they will develop map skills and look at locating and using more complex map skills. We will also look at Biomes and different areas of the globe. We will go onto look at mountain and volcano formation.

In science, the children will be looking at forces and how they act on an object. We will then go on to look at the solar system and planets around us.

In R.E., the children will look at significant people. We will then link this to our art learning and create pop art about a significant person to us.

In PE, the children will be focusing on developing skills in competitive games. We will focus on cricket, rounders, tennis and athletics.
