SSPCA

Today the SSPCA came to talk to us about the different kinds of animals they rescue and the commitments of having pets. We found out some pets need more care than others and if you get a tortoise it could live until it’s 80!

Homework 14th September

Numeracy
We have been leaning about place value (the value of each digit within a number e.g. 255 = 2 hundreds, 5 tens and 5 units or 200 + 50 + 5) with large numbers into millions. Also squared numbers e.g.  (is the same as 9 x 9) = 81

 

Ideas for further practise at home:

 

Literacy

Writing: Leaflets – Main heading, sub-headings, categorised information and related pictures

Spelling: Contractions (There is = there’s, they will = they’ll, will not = won’t…)
