A big thank you to everyone who joined us for our class worship this week. The children loved sharing their work with you.

Homework

Maths - Could the children please do p. 32 Multiplying Fractions and page 35 Dividing fractions. We have been working on these topics with the children this week in class so just remind them to think about the strategies that they have been using.  

Also your child has been given two other revision books, one on Reading and one to revise SPAG. We ask that they complete one of the 10-minute test each week. They can do more if they wish and then can mark the work themselves. If they bring the books back on a Wednesday so we can check if they need any extra help.

PE

This term PE is on Thursdays with Mrs Whittingham and Fridays with Mr Ault. However, please keep PE kit in school all week as we might have extra sessions!
