Mrs Ellis’s PE sessions will be on a Tuesday morning and Friday afternoon. These lessons will take place outside. Please send your child's PE kit in a bag. All items should be named. Outdoor kit is required at the moment. White PE top (round neck) Black/dark jogging bottoms or shorts, trainers, School jumper or cardigan We are awaiting news from the pool regarding opening and we will inform you in due course.
Please can we ask that your child reads for 20 minutes every day. It would be great if you could read with your child and for them to read on their own as well. Please don’t forget to fill in and sign their reading record and ensure reading records and books are in school every day. Each Friday, reading records will be checked and raffle tickets awarded for reading 5 lots of 20 minutes a week.
This half term Mathletics tasks will be set every Thursday to be completed by the following Thursday. Mathletics logins have already been given to the children and have been stuck in their reading records for reference. New spellings will be given out each Monday and tested the following Monday. Please ensure your child practices their spellings in their green spelling book.
This term we are going back in time to study the Tudors. We will look in particular at King Henry VIII and his wives, Queen Elizabeth I and the Tudor way of life.
We have been making Alien soup out of sand, rice, paper clips, salt and water.
Their task was to select the correct equipment to separate the ingredients in the Alien soup. Everyone did a fantastic job.
