This term Our topic will be Raiders and Traders where we are answering the question. What was life like during the dark age? During this term we will be learning all about the Anglo Saxons. Looking closely about who they are and where they came from as well as exploring why they settled in Britian and what their life was like. During this topic we will also learn all about the Sutton Hoo ship burial.

 

Our class text this term will be How to train your dragon book 1 by Cressida Cowell. Feel free to purchase a copy if you can.

Times Tables

We will be doing lots of work on our times tables in class this term to support the children with their upcoming timetables check in June. Thunberg Class’s expectation for their timetables is for them to complete at least 3 of the times games a day(This should only take 5-10 minutes), as well as this I have said to the children if they are struggling with a certain times tables they can practise that times tables on doodles times or hit the button.

Each week I will pick three children that are showing commitment and hard work to their times tables to pick from our prize box.

Just want to add that all the children are working extremely hard on their times tables. Keep up the hard work! 

These are our school expectations.

• To remain in their green zone on doodle maths, doodle spell, and doodle time each week.
• To read 3x a week and to record it in their home school diary.
• For children to have their PE kit every PE session with appropriate shoes.
• For children to complete their silver reading challenge (This can be found at the back of your child’s home school dairy) or their bronze if not yet completed.
• For children to go on Edshed every night and complete at least 2-3 timed game ( takes 5-10 minutes)
