Times tables Rock Stars.
Log in details have been given out for our new TTRockStars programme. Children are encouraged to play as much as possible to help them to improve their scores. Children will be carrying out written tests on times tables 3 times a week. Here is the link:- http://ttrockstars.com/login
Homework
Homework will be given out on Fridays and should be returned by Wednesday. It is really important that it is handed in on time to encourage independence and responsibility.
Reading books: We encourage children to read as often as possible. Please can you sign your child's reading record when you have heard them read. If they finish their book and require a new one, please let the teacher know either in person or by writing in their record. Once records are handed in to the teacher, your child will receive a new reading book.
PE will take place on Mondays and Wednesdays. Please ensure your child keeps their PE kit in school for the whole half term. It will be sent home at the end of each half term for washing. Often, PE will take place outside so it is important that appropriate footwear is worn, ie. pumps or trainers. Swimming will take place on Thursdays.
English
In English we have been reading 'Stone Age Boy' linked to our stone age topic. We have described characters feelings, described settings, written new chapters, created comic strips and as our final piece of work we will complete a 'big write' of our own stone age story! Below is video of the story being read. Check it out!
Maths
In maths we are learning all about fractions! From equivalent fractions to adding and subtracting them!
