Dear Parents,
I hope you have had a lovely Easter break! Our topic for term 5 is ‘Codebreakers’ and we will be using the text ‘Stormbreaker’ by Anthony Horowitz The topic will involve lots of exciting code-breaking activities.

Reading Please read with your child regularly. Their books and book bags will need to be in every day. You may like to add a positive or helpful comment in their reading diary, but please acknowledge the fact that the book has been read by signing and dating in the comments space. A member of staff will be checking reading records on Fridays and children are expected to have read at least 3 times a week with an adult.
Spellings/Grammar Spelling will be tested each week on a Monday. Grammar will be sent out every week on a Monday.
Times Tables Please ensure that children are using Maths Rockstars at home to practise their times tables.
Maths Maths homework will be on MyMaths. Please ensure you support your children to complete this.

Helping to Enrich Our Topics

It is always great to have items or visitors that support our topic, so if anyone has any experience or items that may help us with any of the work above that we could hear about or borrow, we would love to see and hear about them.

Reminders – As we head towards warmer weather, please try to ensure all children are bringing in a sun hat and a water bottle each day with fresh water; ensure all jumpers are labelled and bring a coat for any wet weather.
Please look out for information coming soon about SATs Breakfast Club, the residential and the Lilac Class Production.

Many thanks for your continued support,

Miss Banks
