Good morning!
I hope you had a lovely weekend. Can you believe we’re halfway through November already!? The weeks are just flying in.
Home Learning Tasks
- Class Talks– our class talks are this week and will be on Thursday 19th and Friday 20th November. Pupils were asked to choose an animal, research their animal, write a class talk and practice that talk at home. This has been a focus for home learning for the month of November. Make sure you are prepared this week and are ready to deliver your talks on Thursday and Friday.
- Maths– we have been working on our rounding skills in maths and have had practice rounding to the nearest 10. We have now begun to look at rounding to the nearest 100 as well. Click on the link below or google search for the game called “Rocket Rounding” on the website Topmarks. You can choose whether to practice rounding to the nearest 10 or nearest 100. Good luck!

This strategy involves using phonemes or sounds to help sound tricky or unfamiliar words out. Practice using this strategy at home by playing the game “Blending Bingo” on Topmarks. You can choose your own level and work on particular phonemes if you wish. I know the witches spelling group is focusing on the phoneme “igh”, the wands are looking at “ee/oo” and the cats are looking at “h”.
Have a great week everyone!
