NOTICE: We have now moved on to our 8x tables in our daily Numbersense times table tests. 

English:

This week in our English lessons, the children have been researching about hill walking so they are ready to write their own persuasive leaflet next week. Therefore, this week, we have set the children a creative writing task with dojos for the best 3 pieces per class. We have extended the deadline to next Friday so the children have more time to gather their ideas. Good luck! 

Spellings:

Please make sure you are practising 'week 2' 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 8x 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 8x tables (and division facts) ready for our daily tests next week

- Practise your 'week 2' spellings for next weeks test (Friday) 

- Complete your English homework into your Orange homework book by Friday 24th April
