Week Ahead In Discovery 22.09.2519 September 2025 (by Sonia Coles (scoles)) |
Massive congratulations to Discovery for winning the class treat, as they have worked hard to earn it so quickly.
Class treat
Soft Toys – All children may bring in a named soft toy from home. These will be collected during lesson time to avoid distractions but will be available during breaks
Slippers/Comfortable Footwear – Children are welcome to wear slippers or other comfy shoes inside the classroom
Friday – Children may come in non-uniform (please ensure clothing is weather-appropriate). We’ll also enjoy a relaxed afternoon together to end the week.
English
This week and next, our focus is on writing a setting description about the City of Pompeii. Children will be drawing on their previous and current SPaG learning to enrich their writing. We are encouraging detailed, well-structured, and neatly presented work.
Maths:
We are continuing with our topic on Place Value. Please support your child at home by ensuring they can: Count confidently from 1 to 1000Count in 2s, 5s, 10s and recognise the patterns in counting 20s, 50s, and 100s
Practise times tables daily (this makes a huge difference!)
Soon, we will be moving on to addition and subtraction, so securing place value skills now will help build a strong foundation.
Homework:
Work sheets on partitioning (no Atom Learning), spellings, reading and times tables.
Visitor:
We are very lucky to have PCO Sue Haynes visiting us in class and to talk about being safe and online.
Residential:
Thank you, as always, for your support at home. It really helps to strengthen what we are doing in class. Wishing you all a good weekend.
