Key Reminders

• We arrive promptly to school at 8.50am. We finish at 3.30pm.
• Tuesdays and Thursdays are our PE days. Children need PE kit in school on a Tuesday. Please send them to school in PE kit on a Thursday. 
• Reading homework is to read their book banded books 3 times per week. An adult must sign their diary so that they earn stamps towards reading pins. Diaries are checked on Fridays.
• Spellings are given out every two weeks. These are not tested but your child can achieve house points for showing evidence or a signed diary to say they have practices at home. 
• Mathematics homework is to learn all times tables that are not already known. If you know all of them to 12x12, start on the next ones i.e. 13, 14, 15 times table etc. Don't forget the 25 times table - which is a very useful one! Tables are tested every Friday and house points given to children who pass a challenge or improve on their previous scores. Your child can also achieve house points for practicing this on TTRS. 
• Please use Microsoft Teams for the most current updates. Your child will have a login.

• Water bottle

OPAL Schools

• Please bring your wellies to school if you would like to play on the grass at playtimes and lunchtimes.
• You will also need a coat in school as we will be going out in all weathers. 

Autumn Term Learning

Our focus for the Autumn term will be based on our history work on ‘World War 2’ (and its significance as a turning point in British history). Linked to this, in R.E, the children will study the Holocaust and Judaism and we will visit the Holocaust Centre in Ollerton. In geography, we will look at the countries involved in WW2 and their locations on a map.

In English, the children will study the text ‘Rose Blanche’. As well as this area of learning, in science, the children will study light and sound and, after half term, electricity linked to the Blitz. Our maths study will focus on place value and the four operations.

In PE, the children will be focusing on developing skills in competitive games. In computing, we will be learning about what the internet actually is and how information can be shared. After half term, we will be doing some video editing.
