TTRS Tournament winners (wb 01 March)

Hello again to all of the Times Tables Rock Stars out there,

Firstly, welcome back to school. We’ve missed rocking out with you.

Hopefully last week’s was our final tournament from home.  Everyone has been working so hard and… What’s that?

BREAKING NEWS:

The results are in. We have our ROCK STARS OF THE WEEK.

Recording an average score of 993 , the winning class is Y3. That’s a third successive win – WOW! 

Surely they can’t make it four wins in a row with another victory this week. Can they?

Now that we’re back in school, there’ll be opportunities to play in class as well as at home. Give your teacher a nudge as the week goes on if you’ve not yet had a chance to play. If you’d like to play at home and would like a reminder of your login details, let your teacher know.

All the best TTRS!

Times Tables Rock Stars: tournament time

Calling all Times Tables Rock Stars (TTRS),

It’s great to see that so many of you have been rocking those times tables as part of your home learning.

ALL classes are putting on great performances so now we’re raising the stakes.

Each week, you will be competing in a tournament with the other KS2 classes. The scores of you and your classmates will be added together to decide who will achieve the honour of being… ROCKSTARS OF THE WEEK!

In fact, we set up a warm-up tournament last week and the results are in…

Congratulations to Year 3 who achieved a WHOPPING 734 correct answers.

Who will reach top spot in the charts next week?

Rules for the gig are simple:

  1. Log on to TTRS.
  2. Play on any game mode. We recommend Garage and Soundcheck.
  3. Check the class news page on Mondays to see if your class is the weekly winner. If you practise at the weekend, your scores will still be counted.

All the best, TTRS!

Hi everyone!

Your spellings for this week are all about the alternative graphemes for ‘ai’, ‘ee’ and ‘ie’.

A grapheme is how a single unit of sound (phoneme) is written.

For example, for ‘ai’, you could have the word bait. For ‘ay’, which is the same sound as ‘ai’ but is just written differently, you could have bay.

ai and ay are alternative graphemes

Your spellings to remember for this week are:

favourite, straight, weight, believe, appear, increase, height, describe, decide, surprise

Send an email to your class teacher if you want to ask any questions!

Thank you from Mr. Wain & Mrs. Maqbool!

Dear parents/carers,

As we can’t send Christmas cards this year, Mrs. Maqbool and I have decided to write a class news post instead!

We want to thank you for all the support you have shown both your children and us over the last term – it is massively appreciated and the children have done extremely well! We are so proud of them.

Thank you as well for all the lovely gifts that you have bought us! It’s so kind and thoughtful and we are extremely grateful! We have both decided to open our gifts on Christmas Day – we can’t wait! Thank you again!

We hope you all have a lovely, well earned, Christmas break and enjoy seeing off what has been a trickier year!

Thanks again for all the support you give all the time – see you in 2021!

Mr. Wain and Mrs. Maqbool
