Numeracy – Times Tables

We are currently looking at division in class and knowledge of times table facts is key to making progress. I ask that any tables that are tricky should be practised as often as possible.  You can also use ‘Topmarks’ games to help with this.

PE Days

Just a reminder that our PE days are on a Monday with Mr Smith and a Wednesday with me. We are also receiving football coaching on a Friday for the next 3 weeks so suitable shoes and a jacket are required for this. All PE is being delivered outdoors for the foreseeable future.

Best wishes

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

In class we have been reading Charlie & the chocolate factory by Roald Dahl. This has been for fun and there has been no class work based on the book.

As a treat, the class will be watching the 2005 version of the film on Friday 25th September. If you do not wish your child to watch this then please let me know by email or a note ( callum.dearie@east-ayrshire.org.uk)

If you are happy for your child to watch the film with the class then you don’t need to do anything.

Many Thanks

Mr Dearie
