Term 5 Learning

This term, we will be working on writing for different purposes and will be working toward writing a letter. The children will learn about different animals in the world that are endangered or extinct and consider how we can support our environment. We will be using the book 'The Last Wolf' by Mini Grey to inspire our learning for the term. As we go through the term, we will also use other stories including 'Somebody Swallowed Stanley' and 'The Paperbag Boy' to compliment our chosen book. 

The Last Wolf: Amazon.co.uk: Grey, Mini: 9780857550927: Books

In our Maths, we will continue to use the White Rose scheme of learning to guide or journey and progress. The term we will be continuing to develop our knowledge of addition and subtraction of 3 digit numbers to 1,000. We will use manipulatives including Dienes, number lines and place value charts to deepen our knowledge of place value when adding and subtracting two numbers. The children will work to spot relationships between hundreds, tens and ones to support their mathematical working when answering questions.

Home Learning

Please continue to read with your child each day at home. You can use the Language Through Colour prompts and questions to support your child when answering questions about the story. 

Your child may also have spellings provided by their teachers to practise at home. Quick recall of these, using them in sentences and in writing will all support your child to secure their knowledge of these words. 

Practising number facts such as number bonds to 20 and the 2, 5 and 10 times tables will support your child in retaining key knowledge. The links below will provide some activities to support this. 

Please also explore our SRP page with further information about the interventions that your child may be involved in.
