Term 5–2025

To support your child, please ensure frequent practice of times tables, spellings using Spelling Shed and reading with your children at least three times a week. Please get them to read aloud to support fluency and expression.

With British weather and school life being subject to change, please ensure PE kits are always in school so that we can adapt the timetable when necessary. We will have two PE sessions a week: Tuesday and then on a Thursday. 

Maths: 

It is hugely important that your child knows their Key Instant Recall Facts for their year group. The following facts will support your child over the next two terms with their learning. 

You can find support to complete your home learning tasks in our Maths curriculum area, where it shows you the methods we use to teach the different skills we have taught throughout the week. 

Jigsaw:

Children learn about the importance of self-esteem and ways this can be boosted. This is important in an online context as well as offline, as mental health can be damaged by excessive comparison with others. This leads to a series of lessons that allow children to investigate and reflect upon a variety of positive and negative online/social media contexts including gaming and social networking. They learn about age-limits and also age-appropriateness. Within these lessons, children are taught the SMARRT internet safety rules and they apply these in different situations. Risk, pressure and influences are revisited with a focus on the physical and emotional aspects of identifying when something online or in social media feels uncomfortable or unsafe. Children are taught about grooming and how people online can pretend to be whoever they want. Rights, responsibilities and respect are revisited with an angle on technology use. Screen time is also discussed and children find ways to reduce their own screen time. This puzzle aims to help children to be more discerning when viewing anything online or on social media.
