Autumn Term Week 5

Mr. Stephens - 06 Oct 2023

This week we have been learning about recounts. 

Please ensure your children are completing their times table practise on Times Table Rockstars and their spelling practise on Spelling Shed. Letters have been sent home to support you with logging in and where to find the work that has been set.

This weeks spelling pattern on Spelling Shed is: words with 'kn and 'gn'' in that makes a 'n' sound.

Children have been set their 2x tables on Times Table Rockstars. We explained to the children that multiplying by 2 is doubling and dividing by 2 is halving. These concepts were taught in Year 1.


We will add in more times tables when the speed of your child answering each question is consistently below 6 seconds per question. It is essential that speed is a factor as developing fluency is the entire point of Times Table Rockstars. We recommend using the timed 'Garage' mode to ensure that children are focusing on the times tables set by us.

English
This week we have been learning about recounts. In class we have identified the features of a recount and next week we will be writing our own recount all about our visit to Rainham Church in chronological order. I am pleased that most children are making fantastic progress with their joined, cursive handwriting. To support your child further with this at home, please refer to the LetterJoin letter that was previously sent home. This contains the login information.

Maths
This week we have started learning about addition and subtraction. We have looked at number bonds to 10 and 20 and today we looked at fact families. 

History
We read about Neil Armstrong and sequenced his achievements in chronological order.

Art & Design
We have continued studying the artist Vincent Van Gogh. We learned to mix colours to change the shades using black and white.
