Mrs. O'Mara

Summer 1 2024

Hello everyone and welcome back! I hope you have had a wonderful break and are ready for the term ahead; it is going to be a busy one!

Homework:

We will be continuing with our CGP booklets in preparation for the SATs in the middle of May. Your child will bring home a slip every Friday with details of which pages to read and which tasks to complete.

Reading:

Please ensure reading records are signed whenever you have read (this may be your school reading book, school library book, or a book from home). We ask that you read AT LEAST once a week and that this is evidenced through signing the reading record. Reading is integral to all learning and encourages people to develop their own ideas and a curiosity of the world around them and is one of the most important ways in which you can support your child. 

Times Tables Rock Stars:

This should be accessed as often as possible, at least once a week. Recalling times tables fluently frees up working memory for children to solve more complex mathematical problems and provides them with more confidence in approaching a wide range of mathematical scenarios in school and the real world.

PE Days:

PE will take place on a Wednesday (indoors) and on a Thursday (outdoors). Your child needs to have their kit with them on these days to be able to access the learning fully and comfortably. Earrings, including studs, should not be worn, so if your child is unable to remove them independently, they should not wear them to school on PE days.
