Week beginning Monday 7th July

Of course,  the big news this week is the outstanding success on Sports day. Perfect weather for the afternoon and the children were fantastic. They were kind and supportive of each other whilst competing and performing so well in their races. Also,we thoroughly enjoyed cheering Dorset parents on in their races!

Well done, everyone.

In English, the children have begun writing poems that tell a story and show emotions. Varjak Paw has been a popular read and we are excited to find out if Varjak will save the day.

In Maths, we have completed the work on graphs and statistics. The last topic will be on coordinates. 

 In PSHE, we have continued to learn facts about the human body during puberty. The children came up with sensible and thoughtful questions.

This week was the last swim and the children enjoyed fun time in the pool. They have been making super progress in the pool and their behaviour to and from the pool has been excellent. 
We look forward to seeing parents at the open evening next Tuesday where you will have the opportunity to see the hard work of everyone over the year.

Multiplication Tables

Weekly practise of multiplication tables is vital in supporting mathematical development. Below is a chart of the 36 essential facts to learn. This is especially helpful for children who are almost fluent.

Times Tables Rockstars! 

 

To keep practising the multiplication taught in class, and challenging yourself to keep the ones you already know fresh, don’t forget to log into your Times Tables Rockstars account.

Challenge yourself to beat your score and build your knowledge as you become a Rockstar!

 

Please ask your class teacher if you need replacement log in details.

 

Reading

 

Children should bring their Accelerated Reading Book to and from school each day. When they have finished reading, children are asked to complete a quiz before changing their book.
