This week I’ve been so impressed by the Creative Writing everyone has done. I had to pick 4 pieces to share with Mr King for head teachers awards!

It all started when we received a letter from Emperor Claudius asking for recruits to join his Roman army to invade Britannia. We picked our new Roman names, held a mini Boot Camp outside to test our skills and then began to persuade Claudius why we would be a good fit for his army. We also learnt some key Roman terminology so they can tell their pugios from their cassis!
In maths we reminded ourselves of number lines and figured out how to round numbers to the nearest 10, 100 or 1000. We have also begun completing the Year 3 assessments as these weren’t able to happen in June.

Every child should now have a reading record and times table book to take home with them. Ideally these will be practised as often as possible. Just 10 minutes at a time is fine, a little and often is better than one big practice a week. I will award House Points to children that have read 5 times a week and done times tables 3 times a week.
Any questions please get in touch by the school office.
