Welcome to a new week of learning!

In English, we are continuing to be poets and develop skills and knowledge needed to write our own poems.  In maths, we are thinking about number lines and placing numbers on these.

As historians, we will be considering what was significant for Suffolk 150 years ago and labeling a map of Suffolk in geography.

Forest School will be on Thursday so please come dressed in old suitable clothes and footwear-long bottoms please.  We will be learning about classification keys to group living things.

Macmillan is on Friday, please see the Newsletter for more details.  Your child will need to bring 50p if they would like a cake in school.  All cake donations very welcome too.

Have a good week!

Homework due in next Friday (1st October)

Reading challenge - Read 5 times and more is even better! Remember to record this in your planner.  Any children who do not read 5 times by the end of next week will need to stay in and read during lunchbreak.

Number challenge - Continue to practise.  You can see how your child did in their test today by looking at how many number facts and spellings they got correct in the back of their homework book.

Spellings- Your child has 10 spellings: some children have g making a j sound, others have this and y making an i sound.

Vocabulary - our words over the next week are: region and impact.  Please use these as much as possible in your conversations so your child hears them over and over.

Curiculum Visions - Log in to Curriculum Visions and search 'How The Railway Changed Our Lives'.  Then read page 12-13 and answer the following question by writing a few sentences in your homework book.

Middlesburgh had only a few houses before the coming of the railway but a year later had a population of over 2000. Between 1841 and 1891, the population grew from 5500 to 75, 500!   Write a few sentences in your homework book about why you think this happened.

The homework set is very important as it supports our learning in school. Please support your child to complete it by Friday.

Have a good weekend and remember to check next week's blog.

Our vision is for all children to be confident individuals, successful learners and responsible citizens who are well equipped for future life, knowing that God is with them always.
