Week 3

Welcome to Week 3.  We already seem to be flying through this 11 week term! 
A reminder homework is now due on Fridays and children should be reading nightly on top of their homework sheet.

Maths: we are continuing to revise money and word problems using addition and subtraction. We are also exploring adding groups of 10 to single-digit numbers, i.e. 4 + 10; 4 + 20; 4 + 30 etc.  We will also revise reading o'clock, half-past, quarter past and quarter to times.

English: This week our sound is r influenced 'er'. The children will be learning about 'onomatopoeias'. Ask the children if they can remember how to pronounce it! If they can't it's pronounced 'on-a-mat-a-pee-a'. This refers to the use of a word which imitates the sound it represents, i.e. hiss.

Religion: We will be starting to explore some of Jesus' parables in the New Testament of the Bible.

Science:  We will continue our investigation of water - where it comes from, it's importance as a resource and ways we can conserve it. 

Have a great week!
