Hello Owl Class!

History knowledge organiser- Egyptians History KO

Spelling overview: Spring 2 Spelling Overview

 

PE- Our PE days will be Tuesday mornings and Friday afternoons. Please ensure your child has their PE kit in school for these days.

Homework tasks continue to be:

  • Topic homework (attached above). This will be due on the last Tuesday of this half-term (24.23.26) where we will have our topic showcase afternoon!
  • Reading Journals- due on Fridays
  • My Maths- due on Fridays
  • Spellings- DoodleSpell assignment and Spelling columns (due Mondays)
  • TTRS- continuous practice (it is recommended that children login to TTRS 3-4 times a week for around 10 minutes).

Plenty of stamps will continue to be awarded to those who complete these homework tasks each week!

Homework Club will continue to run on Fridays during lunchtime for around 15 minutes. This is a chance for children who haven’t managed to complete their MyMaths tasks to catch up. I’ll be available to support them during this time.

It’s really helpful for children to develop good homework routines, as the tasks set are designed to reinforce the learning we’ve been doing in class and support their progress.

Upcoming trips:

Next Monday afternoon (2nd March), Y5 will be taking a trip to Keyworth Library as part of our Book Week activities! If your child would like to borrow some books from the library, please ensure they have it in school ready for our trip!

On the morning of Wednesday 25th March, we will be taking a trip to South Wolds to watch their annual Dance Show! More details to follow! Please note: The Equals Trust Concert is also taking place that day, so if your child is attending the concert, they will not be attending the dance show in the morning.

Other information:

  • Please bring back any reading books and Challenge Tree Books as children will have time to swap these during the first week back.
