Key Weekly Information

The classroom door will open from 8:45am each morning and children must be in the classroom and ready to learn by 8:55am. The school day will end at 3:20pm.

 

PE is with Mrs Quilter on a Wednesday afternoon. The other PE session will be led by Premier Sport on a Friday. Please ensure that children are wearing clothes appropriate for all weathers, including multiple layers and waterproof shoes!

Homework!

Each Friday, Badgers will be given their homework for that week. This work will be practicing spellings from the year 5-6 spelling list. We will also be practicing our spelling rule of the week. Badgers will be given one sheet of homework for mathematics and grammar; these will be stuck into their pink homework books. It is important for Badgers to be reading at least 5 days a week and continuing to fill in their reading leaves.

 

We will be marking homework on Thursday morning so please remember to return the homework books prior to this.

What are we learning at the moment?

 

Spring 1:

 

In History this term we will be looking at Vikings. Badgers will be focusing on the Lady of the Mercians. They will explore Viking links to the rest of the world and how Vikings changed as they settled in other parts of the world.

In Geography, Badgers are looking at Migration and its impact on places.

 

In Science we are learning about living things (including humans, animals) and their habitats.
