Round up of the week
The children have continued to respond well to being back and are working hard (with a smile on their faces.)
English
This week we have begun our new Class Text “Dead Man’s Cove”. We have looked at the book cover and beginning two paragraphs to predict the story and have had a go at improving the language and detail in those paragraphs.
Maths
We have continued to concentrate on place value to 10,000,000. We have looked at number lines, bar models and partitioning of numbers.
Maths – Website
In case your child is struggling with a particular areas of maths then the websites below offer further practice in that area (the 2nd website also offers links to YouTube tutorials in the domain)

Homework
What a great week. Every child handed in homework. Thank you for your support.
I have now switched to weekly homework through:
Spelling Shed (we are trying to resolve the issues with the programme that I know a number of you have experienced)
Mathletics
Times Tables Rockstars
SPAG – Links on the blog
If you can continue to read with your child as well as allowing them to read independently that would be fantastic.
If you have any questions please do come and see me.
Have a fantastic weekend
Mrs Hudson
