Our class curriculum - Below, or by clicking on the links, you will be able to see our curriculum plan which will highlight for you our learning intentions across the year. You will also see our Summer Term Planner which will give you much more information on the range of exciting learning activities we have planned across all areas of the curriculum.
Please could you ensure that your child is wearing the correct footwear suitable for school. Trainers are not school uniform and should not be worn with the school uniform. Thank you for your understanding.
English: What is planned?
This term, we will be continuing to improve our writing. We will be looking at sentence types and how to write formally and informally. We will be learning how to write speech using the correct punctuation and we will be writing our own narratives.
We will be continuing our history topic, based upon the Queen's Platinum Jubilee and who and what she represents.

Weekly Learning: Monday 20th June 2022
English:
This week we are continuing with our book called Journey by Aaron Becker. It is a beautiful book that has no words, which gives us a great opportunity to create our own imaginative, magical stories.
Here is a link for a youtube video of this beautiful book: https://youtu.be/DRsmuveKWuk
Maths:
This week, we will be continuing our topic on fractions. We will be finding fractions of numbers. For example 3/5 of 15.
A good website game to help your child grasp this concept is:

Science:
In Science this week we will be starting to learn all about forces and magnets.
Geography:
We will be continuing to learn all about coastlines
French:
In French we will be working towards creating our own passports to visit France virtually. We can't wait to taste all of those yummy french foods!
PE:
PE will be on a Monday (rounders) and Thursday (athletics) afternoons during this part of the term. Please ensure that your child comes to school in their PE kit on these days. I would suggest they wear their Summer PE kit of shorts with their PE t-shirt as these sessions will be outside as much as possible. Can you please ensure that your child also has a drinks bottle and is wearing suncream.
HISTORY:
We will be starting to learn all about our locality. We will look at the changes that have happened around us and especially those that have happened during the Queen's reign.

Spelling, Times Tables, Maths, Reading Homework:
Spellings will be set on a Friday and will be tested on a Thursday this week due to exciting things happening on Friday!
This weeks spellings are:
Times tables will be set on a Friday and tested on a Friday (your child will know whether they have moved onto a new times table)
Grammar Homework will be set weekly on this page.
Grammar Book - 20.06.22: Please do pages 64-66
Your children will keep their grammar books at home and they can mark them with you. The children will be encouraged to bring in their grammar homework books if they struggle with a task or they need help with any part of it. (The answers are in the back :) )
My Maths is set weekly on this page, click on the link below:
Your child will have their login details in their Reading Planner
Reading:
Please read with your child daily as this will have an impact on all areas of their learning. They have a Reading Diary that you should date and together record their reading in. You may wish to write a comment but please do not feel that you have to, simply a record of what has been read is really helpful. Thank you to all of those parents/carers who are writing in them regularly, it is very much appreciated.
If you wish to pass on a message to myself, please feel free to write it in their Reading Diary, but then please ask your child to bring it to me as we do not always check the planners on a daily basis.
Snacks:
As always can we please remind parents that if you wish to provide a break time snack for your child it should be something healthy such as fruit. There is always fruit available if your child forgets their snack. The children can bring in their own water bottle daily which must only have water (not juice) in.
