Term 5 & 6 Newsletter – Class 3

Dear all,

I hope you all had a lovely Easter break and enjoyed time spent with family and friends. Welcome back to school for our final two terms! We have got an exciting couple of terms ahead of us and I am delighted to be back with the children.

English

In term 5, we will be studying the book ‘The Abominables’ by Eva Ibbotson. The book fits in nicely with our theme of Mountains and offers lots of wonderful opportunities for creative writing including another tackle at poetry. We will also be learning how to write an effective persuasive leaflet to encourage people to protect the yetis in the story. In term 6, we will be writing our own mountain adventure stories as well as writing our very own BFG play scripts.

Spellings

We will be continuing our work with our superhero spelling scheme. In the final term of superhero spellings, there is a focus on using apostrophes to show possession and suffixes (ful and less). The outline of the weekly spellings can be found stuck into your child’s homework book as well as on class 3’s page on the school website. Children are expected to practise their weekly spellings alongside their homework and will be tested on their spellings every Friday morning.

Science

In term 5, we will be continuing our work on forces and magnets. We will be investigating different magnetic and non-magnetic materials. Following this, class 3 will be looking at different metals and how magnets attract and repel. We will the move onto our new topic of plants which will lead us up to the summer holidays. We will spend time dissecting plants in order to identify and describe different parts of plants. We will also be carrying out an exciting experiment where we will investigate does the amount of seeds in a pit affect the growth of a plant. Class 3 will also learn about the life cycle of a plant, how a plant grows and stem and water transportation.

Art / Design & Technology

In term 5, we will be exploring how to construct our own 3D models using cardboard shapes. In term 6, children will be constructing their own yeti proof shelters.

Music

Our piece of focus music for term 5 will be ‘In the Hall of the Mountain King’. Children will get the opportunity to listen and appreciate the piece of music, identify the musical instruments and explore what the piece of music is describing.

MFL

In French, we will be reading the Hungry Caterpillar and designing our own menus. In term 6, we will be learning, listening and acting out the story of Little Red Riding Hood.

Geography & History

We kick off our summer term study of mountains by locating different mountains and mountain ranges across the world. We will then be learning about different mountain features and how mountains are formed. Following this, we will be looking at the incredible true story of Edmund Hillary’s and Tenzing Norgay’s Everest expedition. We will put ourselves the explorers’ shoes and investigate their journey. Class 3 will finish off the topic focusing on map reading and map drawing.

Whole Class Reading

Our whole class reading text will be ‘The BFG’ by Roald Dahl. Whole class reading sessions will take place 4 times a week to build children’s reading stamina with chunkier texts. To support reading comprehension, children will have their own BFG reading comprehension booklet to answer questions after each chapter to help them recall information from the chapter they have just read. We are keen to develop the children’s inference skills by answering questions about the characters’ actions and feelings and backing these answers up with evidence from the text.

Maths

In term 5 we will be continuing our work with mass and capacity where we will recap our year 2 knowledge on how we compare mass and volume. This will then be followed by investigating how we measure mass and capacity and how we can add and subtract. This will be a very practical maths topic where children will take part in lots of fun and engaging activities to support their understanding! Following this we resume our work with fractions, making sure we can recognise and find a half, quarter and third as well as working with equivalent fractions and adding and subtracting fractions. We will finish term 5 with a mini topic on money where we will learn about converting pounds and pence as well as adding and subtracting money to help us give change.
In term 6, we will be moving our learning onto time, with a focus on how we measure time using months, years, days, hours, minutes and seconds. We will also focus on how to read a 24-hour clock and investigate how to solve problems using time. Parents can help massively here, by drawing their child’s attention to clocks around the house and helping them tell the time as often as possible please. We then focus our learning on properties of shapes, including how to recognise and describe both 2-D and 3-D shapes as well as comparing angles. To end of year 3 maths, we look at how to interpret and represent data in a variety of ways. This includes; pictograms, bar charts and two-way tables.

RE

Our first enquiry question in our summer term is ‘What kind of world would Jesus want?’ We will be thinking about ‘How Jesus teaches others how to live?’ and ‘Does Jesus show love and forgiveness to all?’ by using examples from the Bible and modern day experiences from our surrounding environment. We will then move onto thinking about ‘How and why do people try to make the world a better place?’ by thinking about different influential people, religions and charities who help to nurture our world.

PSHE

Our summer term focus is all about learning and understanding the changes in our body as we begin to get older, as well as relationships.

Computing

In term 5, we will be using the iPads to create our very own video trailers. In term 6, we will be exploring data bases and using the data to plan holidays.

PE

In the summer term, children will be taking part in net and ball games, athletics and striking and fielding games.

Reminders

PE Kits

Our PE lessons are on Tuesday and Thursdays, so please make sure children have their full kits. Now we are in the summer term, the children will need to wear shorts.

Reading Records

Your children are encouraged to be independent with choosing a reading book to read at home and changing their book when finished. We expect children to read every night, even if it is only for a short while. Please continue to record all reading in their Reading Records. (Small comments such as ‘Read well’ or ‘Confused with word…….’ would be useful.)

The Reading Records will be stamped once a page is completed. Children will receive a certificate in assembly when they fill up their Reading Record. We will be checking children’s Reading Records once a week, so please do make sure it is in their schoolbags on Tuesday Mornings.

Whilst reading with your child, it would be beneficial to ask them some questions about the text or to find a key word they have read. This supports their reading comprehension skills which supports their whole class reading sessions.

Homework

Homework is to be completed once a week and children will be able to choose a piece of homework from a Homework menu. The orange homework books will be handed out to children to take home on a Wednesday afternoon and will be expected back in school on a Monday morning. Please make sure you ask your child about their homework for the week and are working with them to complete it.

TT Rockstars

TT rockstar logins are stuck in the front of your child’s homework book. The times tables class 3 are expected to be confident with are their 3, 4 and 8 times tables by the end of the year. Mr Boorman is checking children’s progress weekly so it would great to see class 3 earning certificates in gold book assembly to display all their hard work on their times tables this year!

Uniform

Please make sure children’s names are on their uniform so that we know exactly who owns what! In Class 3, unless your child is wearing a summer dress, children are expected to wear ties with their uniform. Please make sure your child has a tie and that it is named.

Water bottles

Please make sure your child’s water bottle is clearly named and that they bring them home with them every day. They have plenty of opportunities to drink during the day and are also encouraged to use the school water fountain at break and lunchtime.

Please do come up and chat at the end of the day or email me if you have any questions 😊

Many thanks,
Miss Rietdyk

Term 3 & 4 Newsletter – Class 1

Our Village
Journeys

Dear Class 1 Parents,

Welcome back! We hope you have all had a lovely break and that you are now ready for all the exciting learning that will take place in terms 3 and 4.

Our themes are ‘Blackboys our Village’ and ‘Journeys ’. In Term 3, we will be focusing our learning on our local environment Blackboys Village. We will be learning about where we live by looking at maps, historic photographs and taking part in fieldwork around the local area. We will be focusing on key geographical vocabulary of human and physical features in the local area such as; village, town, city, sea, hills.  The children will also have the opportunity to learn about the history of the first aeroplane and the journeys they made over time.

if you ever have any queries or questions please do not hesitate to email us:

sbooth@blackboys.e-sussex.sch.uk

jnobes@blackboys.e-sussex.sch.uk

Very Best Wishes,

Mrs Booth, Mrs Nobes and the Class 1 team

English

The children will continue to have opportunities to develop their vocabulary through new and exciting themed role-plays, as well as a variety of speaking and listening activities. We will focus on a number of different fiction, non-fiction and poetry texts to base our literacy work on, including:

Goldilocks and the Three Bears

Stanley Stick

Owl Babies      

Non-fiction Foxes

Non-Fiction Hedgehogs

Non-Fiction Owls

The Naughty Bus

…as well as many others!

Our writing focus for Reception is to gain confidence to use their phonics to write simple words and sentences independently. In phonics, Reception will be revisiting the single letter sounds and learning diagraphs. Year 1’s writing focus will be on developing their understanding and use of adjectives to improve description. They will also be encouraged to continue applying their growing phonic knowledge to further support their spelling. There will be a focus for both year groups on writing sentences with the correct capital letter and full stop. The children will need to use finger spaces so separate words can be easily read by others. 

Mathematics

Through the use of practical maths sessions, in which we will promote the use of a wide range of concrete apparatus, the children will be covering the following objectives:

Your child has a login for Numbots. Please encourage them to use this as regularly as possible at home to help develop their maths skills. This was very popular last year and the children loved receiving certificates for points earned!

Computing

In computing Year 1 children will be using a variety of software packages to explore how digital content can be recorded. Reception children will be listening to and discussing stories related to online safety.  

Geography

In Geography we will be looking at maps of our local area to support our field work and drawing our own maps. The children will look at aerial views of the local area to help them understand the human and physical features in the environment. We will be using geographical vocabulary when drawing our maps.

RE

In RE, we will be thinking about what makes us special and where we belong. We will be learning about what makes many Christians believe they are special to God.

Forest School

Forest school will continue run on a Monday afternoon. The children will attend fortnightly, please see the new rota for details of the dates for your child to attend.

For Forest School your child will need the following items.

Wellington boots

Long sleeved top

Trousers (not jeans)

Waterproof coat

Waterproof trousers (if possible)

Please be aware that the children will go out whatever the weather and are likely to get wet and muddy so do not send them with their best clothes.

Reading

As was stressed in September, in Class 1 we are passionate about reading! Firstly, we would like to thank you for the support you have shown with regards to your child’s reading. We do appreciate how busy life can be and know that it can sometimes be a struggle to fit everything in. In school, we will be continuing to read daily with the children. On some days this will be 1:1, on other days it will be guided reading or choral reading, but every day your child will be involved in hearing several shared stories.

Please continue to support your child with reading at home. The children will have a new phonic book sent home each Friday. This book will be a Monster Phonic book that the children have experienced during our guided reading sessions. These are the books your child reads to you. Please remember that the idea of this is that the book should be read and re-read. Whilst reading the same book over again can be ‘challenging’ for us as parents, this repetition is very important for early readers as it helps them to gain confidence; familiarity; build their vocabularies; develop an understanding of rhythm and pattern; as well as for developing comprehension skills. The larger ‘real book’ changed on a Monday is the book you can share together. 

The reading record is for you to use at home but please ensure that it is kept in your child’s book bag. In the reading record please write one comment for each day that you read. When 6 pages of the white book have been completed then a reading certificate will be given to your child during our weekly Friday assembly. We will also be checking reading records for these certificates on Friday so in order to avoid disappointment with delayed certificates please be sure that your child’s reading record is in school.

In the next couple of weeks Reception children will be receiving the next set of letter sounds and high frequency words to learn.

Science

In Science we will be learning about plants by naming the parts of a plant and growing plants from seeds. The children will also look at seasonal change by exploring the season of winter and spring.

History

In History we will be learning about Blackboys Village a local history topic. We will be finding out about how Blackboys got its name and how the village has changed over time. To support this learning, we will be completing field work around the local area. In term 4 the children will learn about how vehicles have changed over time e.g. trains, cars and aeroplanes and start to look at timelines.

Art

In Art Year 1 children will be continuing to develop their understanding of primary and secondary colours and will be exploring colour mixing and creating texture. Reception children will be using play dough and clay to create a nocturnal animal linked to our theme for this term.    

Design & Technology

In term 4 we will be doing DT. We will be learning about Winding mechanisms. We will be assembling, joining and combining materials in order to make a vehicle with moving wheels.

PE

We have two PE sessions a week. These take place on a Tuesday and Friday. Please ensure your child has their full PE kit (fully named) in school for each session.

Homework

The children will continue to be given a weekly maths and spelling and grammar sheet to complete. Homework books will be given out on a Friday and need to be handed in on a Thursday morning.

Wanted

As we now have our fantastic woodwork area outside. We are in need of wood for children to use and explore. Could this please be soft woods and in manageable size pieces. If you have any spare wood that you could kindly donate during the year we would really appreciate it.

Music

Alongside our weekly singing practice with Mrs Bayman, we will be learning about using notation and composition. The children have already begun looking at notation in their recorder lessons last term, so should have some prior knowledge to help them with this.  

Computing

In term 4, we will be working on an exciting new unit about the Mars Rover. This will involve identifying some of the types of data the Mars Rover could collect and explaining how this is transmitted back to Earth. After half term we will be looking at computational thinking, which will require the children to use their problem solving skills.

English

We will start off term 3 by reading the book ‘The Chocolate Tree’ by Linda Lowery and Richard Keep. This is the old Maya folktale about where chocolate comes from and the struggle between Kind Kukulkan and Night Jaguar. We will be using this to inspire us to write an explanation text about the Maya and also write our own folktale. After half term, we will be reading ‘The Lost Thing’ by Shawn Tan. We will also be continuing to encourage children that are working to achieve their pen licences. Those who have their licences will be keen to keep their skills sharp.

Spelling

During these terms we will be using Superhero Spellings. This approach has 3 stages: learn, build and show. The children will be given opportunities to practice the words for the rule throughout the week, before completing 10 dictation sentences on Fridays. These will be stuck in the back of homework books for the children to refer back to if needed. The children will be split into year groups during these spelling sessions.

Science

In term 3 in science we will be studying sound. After half term will be looking at animals including humans, focusing on healthy lifestyle and the circulatory system.

PSHE

Before half term our topic will be ‘Dreams and Goals’ before moving onto ‘Healthy Me’ in term 4.

History & Geography

In History we are spending term 3 learning about how schools have changed from the Victorian period to today, focusing on playtimes, subjects taught and discipline. In term 4 we will use some of our Geography skills of looking at maps and aerial photographs to discover how Blackboys School has changed over time.

English

In English this term we will be reading a new book called “If I were Prime Minister” by Trygve Skaug and we will be using this to learn how to describe characters using expanded noun phrases. We will then be reading a book called “The Election” by Eleanor Levenson and using this to learn about letter writing to inform people about what we would do if we were the prime minister. After half term we will be reading a lovely book produced by The National Trust called, “I am the Seed that Grew the Tree”. This will link nicely with our science learning about plants and we will be adding to our learning in Term 3 by writing setting descriptions and narratives about a woodland adventure.

In Whole Class Reading we will be reading “I am Rosa Parks” by Brad Meltzer, which will help to broaden the children’s cultural knowledge, then we will be looking at some poetry from A.A Milne’s “Now I am Six” and finally “The Day the Crayons Quit” by Drew Daywalt.

We will be continuing with our Guided Reading sessions and our daily Phonics sessions, learning new phonemes and revising those that we have already learnt.

Computing

PE

Miss Zara will be teaching Class 2 on a Tuesday in terms 3 and 4, focusing on dance skills and Mrs Hall will continue to teach PE on a Thursday and she will be teaching the children how to succeed in target games.

Please make sure the children have their PE kits in school for Tuesdays and Thursdays. They will need shorts for their indoor PE lessons and can wear jogging bottoms for outdoor PE. If your child is wearing tights to school, please ensure they have a spare pair of socks in their PE kit to change into.

Music

In Music we will be using the CBBC 10 pieces work on “Finlandia” by Jean Sibelius, making sounds with their bodies, making a graphic score, hearing music from other countries and moving to music.

Homework & Reading

Homework will continue as in Terms 1 and 2. Reading is always important and your child will continue to bring home a Reading for Pleasure book on a Monday and a Phonics book on a Friday. It is vital that these books are returned each week.

If your child would like to choose another book to read each week, there is a great selection of books in the class book corner, which they are welcome to borrow. These can be accessed at any time during the week.

Please continue to fill in the reading records and send them into school once completed so that we can issue a Reading Certificate during a Gold Book Assembly.

Maths

In Maths this term we will be continuing with our learning about addition and subtraction of numbers up to 100, taking small steps to get to the point of being able to add and subtract two 2-digit numbers. Following this we will be starting to learn about multiplication and division, focusing on equal groups. We will finish the term with a unit on fractions making sure we understand that fractions also have to be equal parts of a whole and using this alongside our knowledge of division to find fractions of amounts.

Science

In Science we will be focusing on plants and how they grow, learning about what plants need to grow and then consolidating this knowledge with some investigations into what happens to plants that are grown in the light and the dark. In Term 4 we will be focusing on bulbs and seeds and how these produce plants.
