In Maths this week,

We will start looking and multiplication and division and how they are related to each other and repeated addition and subtraction.

We will continue to work on learning our times tables and increasing the speed of recall of our tables facts.

We are continuing our Talk for Writing unit based on newspaper reports. We will be creating our own innovated newspaper reports based on a well known story. 

We are continuing our IPC unit on Chocolate. Within this unit we will look at the discovery of chocolate, where it is grown and its importance in trade.  As Scientists we’ll be finding out about the ingredients in chocolate;  If chocolate causes tooth decay; why chocolate wrappers are made from special materials and what the melting point of chocolate is.  

You can help your child by:

• Reading regularly at home. Don't forget to write in their planner when they've read.
• Helping them to learn their spellings each week
• Supporting them to complete their learning log
• Practising their times tables. They can use the new Times Tables Rock Stars for this too.
