Hello to all, and welcome back.

The children have settled back into routine and enjoyed writing about one of their favourite days during the Easter holiday.

Next week

In English, the children will look at comprehension and grammar. We will also recap punctuation, commas, adjectives, apostrophes and conjunctions.

In maths, the children will be learning fractions. They will find halves, quarters, thirds and three-quarters of a shape and amount.

In science, the children will label the parts of a plant and tree in detail.

In history, the children will find out who Florence Nightingale was and where she lived.

In RE, the children will look at faith stories.

In PSHE, the children will discuss how to solve friendship problems when they occur.

In D&T this term the topic is mechanisms. The children will design, create and evaluate a moving vehicle which will include wheels and axles.

 If you have any small cardboard boxes at home, please could your child bring them into school for their moving vehicle.

School jotter – today I have sent the children home with a letter about Little Heath’s new app, School Jotter. This is a free app that has all the important information in one place. The letter contains your username and password to use this app. Should you have any questions, please contact the school office and they will be happy to help.

Smile! Whole class photos will be next Tuesday 30th April. 

All clubs will start again next week.

Spellings for next Friday are:

Group 1: feel, heel, fuel, hole, pole.

Group 2: middle, camel, bottle, paddle, tunnel, apple, squirrel, angle, little, circle, female, people, double.

Have a great weekend

Wishing you a fun and hopefully sunny Easter holidays.

I will write a detailed blog prior to returning back to school giving an insight of the topics we will be covering next term.

The majority of the children have asked to take a copy of a national curriculum maths or English paper home to complete over the holidays. The first few questions will be practise questions and the question will not be written on paper 2: reasoning, please start from question 6.

Happy Easter holidays!
