Welcome to Robins class!
So the summer term is now here with lots of things to look forward to but before we get to that lets take a look at what we got up to last term.
This term our topic is called Toys. It is a history and design and technology based topic where we will be learning about toys old and new and designing, creating and testing our own puppets. We will be learning about the best ways to join the different parts of our puppets together before testing them during a puppet show.
In literacy we will be learning about traditional tales reading a range of them and then adapting well known tales to make them our own. In maths this term we will be looking at multiplication and division problems along with securing the children’s addition and subtracting knowledge.
Could you ensure that your child’s PE kit (both indoor and outdoor) is in school. The children should have a PE jumper (black/navy), jogging bottoms (black/navy), a t-shirt (white), shorts (black/navy) and sensible trainers. If the kit gets muddy, they will be sent home to be cleaned.
Reading books should be read twice at home before they are changed, please discuss what has been read with your child to promote their understanding. When your child’s book needs to be changed, please encourage them to do so first thing in the morning.
Please continue to help your child to learn their list of high frequency words (lotto), encourage your child to sight read AND spell each word. We will test them on these words at least once a fortnight (we aim for once a week, but this is not always possible). There is a copy of all of these sets of words at the bottom of this page, please feel free to download and use these.

(Please note that the 100 high frequency words should be learnt before moving on to the 200 common words)
