Class 5

It has been lovely catching up with many parents at the consultations this week, and we look forward to seeing the rest of you on Tuesday.

Please find the latest home learning below. I continue to encourage those who are not regularly managing to complete this, to come and join me in our lovely home learning club on Monday lunchtimes. Numbers are steadily going up, but there is always room for more. It's lovely to see children joining us just to enjoy a good read, too.

For those accessing the stretch work, this week's pages are as follows:

Maths: page 32

Comprehension: page 2 (repeated from last week as booklets had not arrived).

I will shortly be adding some reminders to this page about techniques children can use to make their spellings 'stick,' as some of them have said this would be helpful. Please watch this space!

All the best,

Miss Newman

Home Learning to be handed in on Tuesday 10^th February
This week the children have been set an activity named ‘Modelling Fraction Calculations ‘on MyMaths. It is not our intention for home learning to cause unnecessary anxiety in the household, therefore if there any concerns, please ensure you speak to the teacher in advance of the Tuesday deadline to ensure we can put the necessary support in place.
Weekly expectations
Times tables	Reading
Please ensure your child practises their times tables daily on TTRS. This only needs to be for 5/ 10 minutes per day but daily practice is proven to lead to greater fluency.	Please ensure your child has read a minimum of 5 times and logged it into their reading record. Reading is the key to them accessing the full curriculum and they will struggle with further learning without the necessary practice.
Spellings- these will be tested on Thursdays. Please ensure they have been practised prior to this.
Group A Words with ‘silent’ first letters	Group B Revision words
knife	exactly
knight	bravely
knowledge	pleasure
knuckle	dislocate
mnemonic	island
pterodactyl	decide
wreath	disadvantage
wreckage	survey
wrestler	ordinary
writer	promise
Reminders
PE days this term are Wednesday and Thursday.
Happy learning! Mrs. Eder, Miss Newman and Miss Walters.
