Hello all.
Wow, I really cannot believe it's half term. It has been a fantastic 7 weeks full of learning - it has been so nice to be back in the classroom with the children.
This Thursday we were lucky enough to have another talk from a person working in the field of STEM. We spoke to Michelle, a pilot (captain) from Easyjet. We had a great discussion about the world of aviation and what it is like to be a pilot. All children in KS2 took part and really enjoyed the discussion. After half term I have organsied for us to have another talk from someone who works in farming.
Maths Home Learning
Please ensure the children are going onto TT Rockstars and Numbots. A minimum of 3 x 20-minute session per week is expected.
I have given the children their log-in details for TT Rockstars. This is a website that allows children to practice their times tables. Please use this website for their maths home learning. Alongside TT rockstars there is also a website called Numbots which allows children to understanding, recall and fluency in mental addition and subtraction, so that they move from counting to calculating.
Links to the website are below.
