Half term Focus:
To start with, we are using our persuasive skills to create a persuasive letter, convincing the reader of the argument we are putting forward. Our model text will focus on 'Children should bring dragons to school'.
In the later part of this half term, we will be working on suspense writing. Our focus will be a 'Defeat the Monster' tale and the children will coming up with their own epics of how mighty hero has slain a horrifying creature of their own design.
Class story: Who Let The Gods Out
Guided Reading: Who Let The Gods Out
Library
To access the reading cloud and order your favourite books into the library, click below:
Books are issued for two weeks at a time but can be returned earlier. If your child wishes to keep a book for longer than two weeks, please send it in to school and your child can place it in the library box with a post-it note so that it can be renewed.
You can check which books your child currently has on loan along with the return dates on Reading Cloud. Log-in details are in the front of your child's home-school diary. If a book has got lost, we ask for a £5 contribution towards replacing the book. Please speak to your child's class teacher.
PE
Children should come to school in their PE kits on a Monday and Wednesday. Children should wear their colour T-shirt of the planet group they're in with blue shorts and trainers. Plain blue, black, or grey tracksuit bottoms or leggings and a similar sweatshirt (no logos please) should be worn as the weather becomes colder. If you prefer, your child can wear their school jumper or cardigan.
COMPUTING
In computing this half term we are creating an interactive poster using eyejack technology.
