13th March 2006

This is a very busy week for our children, as our year 5's will be making their Reconciliation on Thursday. They will also be continuing with their rugby training on Monday afternoon. Literacy homework each week, will now consist of writing 10 sentences, which include their weekly spellings. This has been decided to raise the profile of writing and also to help develop the children's vocabulary and grammar. In literacy, we are investigating traditional tales and fables. We shall also be writing some of our own versions. In numeracy, we are looking at the probability of events and calculating amounts of money that are needed and the change that they should receive.
Science involves investigating forces and the effects of gravity on objects.
Thank you to those parents who are continuing to sign the children's reading diaries. It really does make a difference to your child when they know you are making comments in the diaries. It also helps staff a great deal and any questions which you may have, can be dealt with as soon as we receive them. Many thanks.
