Home Learning

Every Friday you will receive a pre-teaching email where should you wish, you can go over any of the forthcoming week’s key learning concepts. Attached to this email will be Maths revision where you can practise and consolidate your child’s prior learning. Children will also bring home a fully decodable reading book and a reading for pleasure book to share at home.

World Book Day.

World Book Day is always one of the most fun and memorable days of the year. The children’s excitement and love for books and reading was clear to see. They began the morning with a WBD assembly were they were given pictures of teachers from when they were little and the children had to ‘Guess the Teacher’ along with their favourite books. The children finished the assembly with a rocking catwalk were they showed off their immense love of books and fantastic costumes! We had a lovely writing lesson on the jungle adventure book, ‘What’s more scary?’ and finished the day with ‘Share a book’ with children from Year 5.

Maths

There are two modes to Numbots: Story mode for building understanding and challenge mode to put your math skills to the test!

In Story Mode, the emphasis is on mathematical concepts and is underpinned by a mastery approach to teaching. Story Mode features visual representations, procedural variation, exposure to different calculation strategies and interleaved material all in very carefully sequenced order.

In Challenge Mode, the emphasis is on rapid responses to essential facts and simple sums, against the clock. Challenge Mode is locked for new users and is unlocked once players reach a certain level on Story Mode. It’s currently set to unlock part way through Tin stage.
