Reminder

Just a reminder that we expect children to bring in the following things daily:

• Water bottle: containing water only please
• Bookbag: with yellow reading log, AR book and RWI books if appropriate
• Coat: as the weather gets warmer we don’t force children to wear coats but we advise children keep a pack-a-mac or similar on their peg in case it becomes showery!
• Fruit snack: for break time

Optional items (most children find these useful to have):

• Pencil case: containing a range of colouring pencils, writing pencils, pencil sharpener, ruler. Please check your child’s pencil case over the break to ensure they have an appropriate range of stationery.
• Spare socks: just in case!

Projects

We loved seeing the children’s amazing project work this week. Thank you for supporting them to complete these at home.

Our learning this week

English: The children wrote their own sequel stories to tell the tale of the children of Hamelin.

Maths: The children continued their work on fractions by looking at equivalent fractions.

DT: The children completed their Roman helmets this week by using a net to create the basic shell structure and then strengthening it with card. They also decorated the helmet using a range of materials.

Homework - We still expect children to complete homework over the Easter break:

• TTRS – 15minutes on ‘Garage’ per week
• Reading – 5x per week
• Spelling shed – 10 games per week

Thank you, 

Miss Willey, Mrs Martin & Mrs Everitt
