Welcome to Owls!

Welcome back to our Summer term. I hope you had the most amazing Easter break, filled with fun, kindness and maybe some chocolate. We have the most amazing half-term lined up.
This terms topic looks at the question ‘Who is Kind?’ which explores how our words and actions can have consequences. Through this we will be investigating eco-systems and look at the importance of bees in our world. We will have the chance to get outside to do some planting and show how we can be kind to our own environment. #kindness In English, we will be using the book ‘Wonder’ as our main text, which links into out kindness topic superbly. This book will be helping us with our grammar and our comprehension skills. In addition, we will be using some smaller texts with The Write Stuff approach to focus on our ‘lenses’ of writing. #creativity We will continue to read our class story each day and can I ask that children also have their own reading books with them every day, be it a book from home or school. #loveofreading Spellings will be handed out on a Friday and tested the following Friday. We will also be concentrating on the spellings of high frequency words and having a spelling lesson each week. #focus Mathematics will take us on a journey through fractions, incorporating the four operations too as well as refreshing ourselves on the foundations of mathematical understanding. We will continue to practise our arithmetic and times tables skills each week too. #mathematicians Additional times table practise at home is expected and children can always access their TTRockstars accounts to help with this. Reminders: PE will take place on Wednesday afternoons. Please make sure your child comes to school in their PE kit. Bring in your named water bottles each day. Remember not to bring any stationary or 'toys' into school - we will supply all that is needed. Don't forget a reading book - or you can borrow one from the library. Also remember to bring a coat as we will get outside as much as possible. Keep checking back to see all the fantastic things we are doing, in the photographs below. #reflecting #tolerance #empathy Don't forget to use your login details for https://www.purplemash.com/sch/measham |
