English:

Over the next week, the children will be conducting research about Howard Carter in order to write their own biography about him. Therefore, this reading comprehension is all about him and his life. 

Spellings:

Please make sure you are practising 'week 4' spellings ready for next weeks test. 

Extra copies will be in the 'Spelling and Speed Spell' folder. 

Reading:

It is really important that the children are reading as much as possible (preferably daily). Please make a note each time your child has read at least 10 minutes so it goes towards their 100 reads to get a book from the vending machine. Once your child has finished their book, please remind them to put it in their class reading folder box so it can be changed if necessary. 

Times tables

We will continue to use our maths programme 'Number sense' to prepare the children for the Year 4 multiplication check in June. 

Please make sure your child is practising their 12x tables including division facts ready for the next few weeks. 

To do list: 

- Read your school book (try to aim for at least 10 minutes per day)

- Practise your 12x tables (and division facts) ready for our daily tests next week

- Practise your 'week 4' spellings for next weeks test (Friday) 

- Complete your English homework into your orange homework book (Due Wednesday 24th June)
