Hello Hedgehogs

Welcome to the Summer Term, I hope you all enjoyed the Easter holiday. This term we will be learning all about Anglo-Saxons and Scots. You can see our medium term plan here: Medium term plan Summer 1

The weather is warmer now so we will spend as much time as possible outside. Please make sure you have a hat and sun cream for sunny days and a waterproof coat for rainy days. It is also really important to remember your water bottles.

Homework:

Please read to an adult at home at least three times a week. Practise multiplication tables by using TT Rockstars or an alternative method. There will be a weekly spelling test, so you will need to practise at home. You can find this week’s spellings here:

Year 3 Look Say Cover Write and Check Activity

Year 4 Look Say Cover Write and Check Activity

If you cannot come to school because your family are isolating, I have provided two weeks of Oak Academy Maths and Literacy lessons below. You should complete one Maths and one Literacy each day, then practise your spelling, reading and multiplication tables.

Sometimes other arrangements can be made for you to learn at home. Please contact me as soon as you know you will not be able to attend school and we will find the best solution for you.

Each week you are expected to read to an adult at home at least three times. Books are sent home on Monday and should be returned the following Friday (unless you have not finished the book). In addition, you should practise multiplication tables on TT Rockstars and learn your weekly spellings. You may also choose to write a funny story and email it to me.

Our World Book Day Celebrations also took place during the term, with the whole school joining in a series of activities about Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Harry Potter, Peter Rabbit and the poetry book, Heard it on the Playground.
