For Summer half term two, we will be doing a local history study of Nantwich.

English: This half term, we will be reading the text 'Bold and Brave Women from Shakespeare'.

Maths: We will be working on fractions, decimals and percentages.

Reading: In our reading lessons, we will be reading African Tales: A Barefoot Collection.

Mrs Doyle: Class Teacher (Monday, Tuesday (AM), Wednesday, Thursday and Friday (AM)) 

Mrs K and Miss Hutchings: Mrs K will be working with the children on a Wednesday and Friday afternoon. We are extremely lucky to have a fantastic team of Teaching Assistants to support the children in their learning.

Homework Explained!

Weekly Spellings:

Your child will receive their spelling homework on a Friday. The spelling rule will then be taught each day to help embed this into their writing. Please can all children practise their weekly spellings, in time for their spelling test the following Friday. 

Maths Homework:

The children in Y5/6 class are expected to be regularly logging onto TTRS. 

Reading:

Your child has a school reading book and an individual reading journal. Please can we encourage as much reading at home as possible (at least three times a week) as well as a comment written from you when you can. Thank you. 

Timestables:

Your child will be given a login for Times Tables Rock stars, an exciting online tool to help them to learn times tables. 

Dojo homework:

This can be found on the homework tab at the top of this page and on ClassDojo. While this is not compulsary, it's a great way to learn more about our topic and earn Dojo points to convert in our shop at the end of term. We are continuing to build our book reviews and recommendations as a class, as well as working as a team to achieve as many Dojo points as possible as a class. Please check our Dojo page regularly for updates regarding homework.

Foxes' wishlist:
