Home Learning

English: 20 minutes daily reading.  When you have finished your book, please complete one of the Blooms questions at the back of your Reading Record.  Use the example to help you structure your response.  Please regularly check in with your child about their reading and try to set aside 20 minutes a day for them to read.

Spelling: Log on to Purple Mash this week and have a go at the 'Words with -tion sound’ quiz.  There is a Look Cover Write Check sheet at the bottom of this page for you to practise.  This week is a revision spelling pattern from Y4 and is not linked to our work in class.  Apologies for the confusion last week, the tests should be set up correctly now!

Maths: Please complete Section 2 Test 8 from your booklet.  Don't forget to mark and record your scores in class.

Class Reader

In class we are reading 'Beetle Boy' by M. G. Leonard.

Ask your child:  In Chapter 5, Darkus begins to realise that the beetle he discovers is not an ordinary insect.
Why do you think the beetle chooses to stay close to Darkus, and what does this tell us about their developing relationship?

Big shout out to Alex who took some excellent action shots!
