Welcome to Summer 1!

Reading is frequently proven to help children in life and learning. Please read everyday at home.

Living and Growing

In English, we will:

• consider tone and purpose to create our own success criteria
• aim to write more to increase our stamina
• continue to use proper punctuation
• focus on homophones and suffix endings in spelling

• learn how to divide using our knowledge of the 5, 10 and 2 times tables
• learn how to add a single digit number to a 2-digit number between 20 – 100 and learn how to add a 2-digit number
• learn how to do the same with subtraction, focusing on difference to help us work efficiently

Book-bags should be brought into school every day: we encourage children to be as independent as possible and to remember their book-bag for themselves. Children can change their books in any silent reading session – it is up to them to let us know they need to.

We hear all children read in Guided Reading sessions, more than once a week, and certain children individually on a 1:1 basis at other times.

Children are encouraged to change their books regularly.

Ruby Class’s PE days are Monday and Friday.

Burgundy’s PE days are Wednesday and Thursday.

    PE kits should be brought into school and kept in school for ease. A PE kit consists of T-shirt, shorts, long-sleeved top and jogging bottoms, spare socks, trainers or plimsolls.  Long hair must be tied back and no jewellery please. If children do not have their PE kit, they cannot fully partake in the lesson.

Children will need to bring a filled and named water bottle to school each day. The class tap is drinking water and the children are able to fill their bottles as needed.

Google Classroom login details will be found in your child’s reading record. Homework will be acknowledged by the class teacher on Google Classroom or in person.
