Welcome Back!

We are so happy to see the children back in school and are keen to get back to our normal learning!

This term, our topic is "Mayan Mahem" We will be learning all about the Ancient Mayan Civilization in history and creating some Mayan art! In science we are exploring animal kingdoms and classifying plants and animals.

In maths, we will be securing our understanding of place value and the four operations as well as regularly working on our arithmetic skills. In literacy, we will develop out spelling, handwriting and grammar skills and use these to improve the quality of our writing.

Keep an eye on this page for some photos of what we get up to!

HOW TO HELP YOUR CHILD AT HOME

Subject		How your child can support their progress at home
Literacy		Ask your child about their individual targets. All children should be using vocabulary to support the reader (full stops, capital letters, commas and more!). Read through your child’s homework with them to ensure it makes sense before handing it in. Encourage your child to use a variety of vocabulary in their writing to make it more interesting. Practice spellings every week and put them into sentences. Read with your children daily and write in their reading record.
Maths		Ensure your child is confident with their times tables – this will support all areas of mathematical learning. Ask your child daily what they have learnt in mathematics and see if they can explain the method they have learnt. This will help to consolidate their learning. It is also important that your child can apply their knowledge to word problems. Use TTRockstars and SAM Learning to encourage hands- on learning.
Science		Research their current topic in science and see if there are any cool experiments to do at home!
History/ Geography		Research their current topic in history or geography and help them to understand where these events would go on a timeline
RE		We are learning about Judaism, so you could help them research more about the religion.
Music		Explore a range of music with your child to see which they are most interested in. You can also look at the origins of the music.
