Spelling practise at home

Can I please remind parents that their child should be practising spellings for about 5 minutes each evening. They can use the look, cover, write, check method.

A few minutes a day really does make a huge difference.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

Homework 23rd November

This week the children have been given a short activity on identifying animals that are either herbivores, carnivores or omnivores. This is what we have been working on in science this week.

Also, there will be a times table test next week, so the children will need to practice the following;

year 2 – 2,3,5,and 10 times table

Year 3 – 2,3,4,6,8,and 10 times table

Could all books be in by next Thursday please.

Have a lovely weekend!

Homework – Grinshill Friday 16th November 2018

As part of the science curriculum we have to study our local environment in each season.

This week we will be going outside to explore our school grounds to see what plant life and animal life we can find.

So, I would like the children to look in their gardens to see what leaves they can see, and perhaps on the way to school. I have included in their books a woodland trust leaf identifier. Maybe, your children could stick in an example of some of the leaves they have found.

Grinshill Class

Thank you for completing amazing Stone Henge models.

The children look like they have had an amazing time making them.

If there is work in homework books on Stone Henge,  I apologise for not making it yet as it was a rather late finish at parents evening last night.

This week I have set a times tables fun activity that is in all the children’s books.

Enjoy!
