More maths…
We’ve also been learning about place value in our maths lessons.
Maths challenge table
Our mathematicians have been creating jungle animals / superheroes from different 2D shapes.
PE
Just to let you know, PE in Year 2 is on Mondays and Tuesdays.
Hopefully, the weather will stay fine and we’ll be outside. This means children will need trainers and a jumper as well as their normal kit.
Newsletters
This term’s newsletters have been emailed and paper copies will be sent home later this week.
This year, we’ll publish the newsletters on the website, too. Here are the first half-term’s…
- Year 1 and Year 2 newsletter
- Year 3 and Year 4 newsletter
- Year 5 and Year 6 newsletter
- The whole school newsletter
Reception provide their own newsletters and lots of photos, top tips and news on their class news page.
Rugby world cup activities
As the Rugby World Cup approaches, Roundhegians are organising activities for both children and adults at their local facilities.
News from Year 1
We’ve had an exciting day today; children have shown some brilliant maths skills and others have been acting out our story ‘The Leopard’s Drum’. Can your child retell the story to you?
Just a reminder that PE is tomorrow (Tuesday) and Thursday.
Having fun!
11 September 2015
Children have been given a new Learning List book, which gives lots of great tips for learning spellings as well as being designed to allow children to practise independently.
This week’s spellings are all words that include ough:
thought
bought
ought
nought
brought
ought
rough
tough
enough
cough
Every minute counts…
Is your child ever late for school? Did you know…
- 5 minutes late each day = 3 days of school lost in a year
- 10 minutes late each day = 6.5 days of school lost in a year
- 15 minutes late each day = 10 days of school lost in a year
- 20 minutes late each day = 13 days of school lost in a year
- 30 minutes late each day = 19 days of school lost in a year
- 19 days lost in a school year is likely to lead to one whole grade lower in SATs across all subjects
Welcome to Year 3
We have had a fantastic week getting settled into our new classroom. All the children have shown an impressive attitude to learning which is great as it means we can get on with all the learning I have planned.
It has been great meeting some of you in the playground. Please feel free to pop in anytime after school if you have any questions.
