Synopsis of the terms learning
The Place Value of Punctuation and Grammar
This term, we will be developing our understanding of all aspects of key stage two punctuation and grammar with an in-depth study of key terminology and information relating to grammar and punctuation rules.
VIPERS
We use VIPERS to cover the reading content domains across KS1 and KS2. In VIPERS, we will be exploring different texts in detail and explore the different strands of VIPERS skills within this.
Maths
Mental arithmetic will continue to be a focus within our maths sessions, having a daily arithmetic session to build on our fluency skills. Understanding of reasoning and problem solving strategies will also play an important role in our learning this year.
PE
Our PE days will be on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. This year we would like children to bring their PE kit in, ready to change at school.
Reading and Handwriting
We devote time daily to independent reading and handwriting, as these are vitally important skills which help us across all curriculum areas. Watch this space for examples of high-quality reading and writing, coming soon!
Homework
Homework is set termly, as an overview, using the platform Google Classroom or providing paper copies where homework is tailored to individual needs. There will be weekly spellings set through Spelling Shed, which are also available on Google Classroom. Daily reading and regular practise of times tables using Times Table Rockstars is also part of our homework expectation.
