Imperial War Museum

The children had a fantastic trip to the Imperial War Museum on Wednesday. They engaged well with all the activities and carried out the learning trails on WW1 and Rationing with enthusiasm. We were very proud of them.

 PE

PE will continue on Thursdays with Mrs Whittingham and Fridays with Mr Ault but please have PE kits in all week as we may swap sessions around to fit in with our rehearsals for Aladdin.

 Maths Homework

Thank you for your on-going support with the Maths Homework. We hope you are finding our new books useful tools for revision.

This week, we would like them to complete pages 10 and 11 (Roman Numbers) due in on Wednesday 20^th November. This is revision of a Year 5 topic that is assessed in the KS2 SATs so you may need to remind your child of the value of each letter e.g. X = 10, C = 100 etc.

 Spellings

Our spelling words next week will focus on Exception Words from the Year 5/6 Spelling List:

guarantee, queue, vehicle, mischievous, foreign, bargain, amateur, hindrance, profession, sufficient

 Aladdin

Please help your child to learn their lines for our school production and ask them to work on any songs that they need to learn. Encourage them to act out their lines and use expression and tone to emphasise the message behind their spoken words. Also please come and see me if you are struggling to get any costumes.

The children will be rehearsing for their roles on Friday afternoon during school time.

As always, just pop in and see us if you have any questions at all.

Mrs Downing, Mrs Whittingham & Mr Beswick
