Welcome back to summer term
We are looking forward to getting back to this important term, exploring our new topics and enjoying learning together with all of you! 

 

✏️ English

🔢 Mathematics

This term in Mathematics we will be diverging somewhat: the years 5 group learning to extend their knowledge of decimals and percentages then exploring Perimeter and area, whilst the year 6 group will complete their perimeter, area and volume understanding prior to SATS this term.

📌 Practising times tables is essential ⏱️. While some pupils have made great progress using TT Rockstars 🎸, there is still room to strengthen number fluency to make these skills more secure and automatic.
