English and Vipers
In English, we will be focusing on punctuation and grammar to embed prior knowledge and write in full, grammatically correct sentences. Our first focus area will be different nouns and how to correctly identify and use them in our own sentences. In VIPERS, we will be exploring the classic tale ‘Beowulf’ adapted by Michael Morpurgo.
Maths
In Maths we will be focusing on place value with numbers to 1,000,000, spending time using number lines and using methods to compare round numbers confidently. We will then move onto learning about addition and subtraction and then multiplication and division.
PE
Our PE days will be on Monday and Fridays and we would like children to bring their PE kit in, ready to change at school.
Reading and Handwriting
We devote time daily to independent reading and handwriting, as these are vitally important skills which help us across all curriculum areas. Watch this space for examples of high quality reading and writing, coming soon!
Homework
Each week, there will be spellings to learn, with a spelling test every Friday. Daily reading and regular practise of times tables using Times Table Rockstars is also part of our homework expectation. Optional homework activities can be found in the grid below.
