Term 1 Week 6 11.10.24

We can't believe we've just completed Week 6. The children have been hard at work producing the next chapter of the story for their hot writes. The class have produced some amazing writing in English – I am looking forward to reading their hot write story.
In Maths, Year 5 have been looking at multiplication. We have looked at common multiples and factors of numbers. We will be continuing multiplication next week – please use TT Rockstars at home as this will help in your child's learning next week.  Year 6, in Maths, have been looking at division using both the long and short methods. They continued their learning by looking at division with remainders. Some children have found long division extremely difficult. Please support your child by going through long division with them and looking at tutorials on YouTube. They finished the week with a division game/quiz. Again, make sure you use TT Rockstars, as this will help in your child's maths learning. 
DID YOU KNOW THERE IS A YEAR 6 MATHS PAGE TO SUPPORT YOUR CHILD ON OUR SCHOOL WEBSITE? IT IS IN THE CHILDREN'S SECTION CALLED YEAR 6 SATS RESOURCES. 
In our Geography learning, linked to our topic, the children created maps of the local area using keys and symbols to make maps easier to read.
In Science, we have looked at classification and produced our own classification key.
In RE, we researched what Christians believe happen to people after death.
In PE, we continue to work on our Football and Basketball skills.
In Computing, we have looked at working collaboratively online using Teams.  
REMEMBER: you should be using TT Rockstars, Ed Shed and Fiction Express at home to support your learning!  
Have a lovely weekend
Mrs Rackley and Mrs Stokes
