Weekly Blog: w/c Monday 9th June 2025

We are looking forward to starting swimming on Fridays: the class has been divided into two groups and each will have 30 minute sessions in the pool and 30 minutes cricket.  We will continue our 'Chance to Shine' cricket sessions on Thursday - the children loved this last week.  

In Maths, we have now moved on to multiplying by 10, 100 and 1,000 using place value counters and charts to represent numbers and demonstrate how the counters move to the left - one place for multiplying by 10, two for 100 and three for 1,000.  We have also discussed how zero can be used as a place value holder to ensure the correct position of digits.

In English, we are looking forward to starting reading 'How to Train Your Dragon' by Cressida Cowell (our Guided Reading session was taken up by the Roving Bookshop visit last week).  We will be looking at the front cover and blurb to predict events in the book and then answer questions by retrieving intricate information and words in the text.  

Thank you your ongoing support.

With best wishes,

Mrs Gilbert Scott
