Year 5/6 Blog Post 4.10.24


We are once again back to another Friday - and it's now October!!!

As the weather is continuing to cool and provide us with free showers, could we please request that you provide the children with suitable school uniform and added layers for when we go out to play and learn.  We have had much fun in our learning again this week, so please take a look at our newsletter for some updates and photos.


YEAR SIX PARENT MEETING

Another reminder to please come join us and learn how you can support your child through this important year. We are encouraging you to bring your child with you so that you can ask questions if needed.

We hope to see you there!

  • Reading: Remember 15-20 minutes reading to an adult every day is the optimum and should be continuing into Year 6. Please also encourage your child to read by themselves and then discuss the text afterwards, sharing opinions, their favourite part or questioning what happened so as to ensure that your child is understanding the text as well as reading it. All children have a Reading Record to take home.
  • Spelling words - please practise these at home by revising them from your spelling and times table notebook and by writing them down.
  • Times table practise - next week we are looking at 4’s. Please practise these at home by revising them from your spelling and times table notebook and by writing them down.
  • TTRS/Sumdog - lots of practice on these amazing programmes that complement what we learn at school. Please see your reading diaries for login details or message your class teacher using Dojo


Science Day! Thursday 10th October



On Thursday next week, we have invited Sublime Science to Down Hall to provide the children with a day full of scientific experiments. In light of this, could we please ask that your children come into school wearing clothes that you don't mind getting a little messy.

Should you wish to embrace your little scientist further at home, the link attached will take you to their website, where you can access over 100 free experiment ideas. sublimescience



Bikeability

For the children who received a letter regarding bikeability this week, please ensure that you bring in your bikes to the school hall at the beginning of the day and children are provided with the equipment listed on the letter. Many thanks.

We hope that you have a wonderful weekend

Mrs Hurley, Mr Greenfield and Mrs Witherall
