LITERACY:

The children have thoroughly enjoyed learning our topic this term. This week we will be continuing on our rain forest cross curricular theme by looking in depth at a poem by the poet Grace Nicols.

If you would like to talk to your child about this poem please see the link belowhttps://www.clpe.org.uk/poetryline/poets/nichols-grace

MATHS:

We will be continuing our Multiplication and division unit. Having focused on the 11, 12 times tables last week, multiplying 3 single digit numbers, we will be moving on to factor pair and multiples of numbers. There are many good websites to support your child’s learning in Maths such as Topmarks. https://www.topmarks.co.uk/maths-games/7-11-years/multiplication-and-division

We will be continuing our Rain forest topic alongside our Science, R.E, P.S.H.E, French and I.C.T learning this week. In particular we will be focusing on dealing with unhelpful pressure and know some techniques to deal with this as well as knowing the importance of talking to a trusted adult when they need to.
