As P6 have their class assembly next Thursday (12th) afternoon, their main homework this week and next will be to prepare for it. This will involve learning lines and practising their plays.
All students still have spelling words and should read the next two or three chapters in their group reading books, depending on what we agree in class for each group.
You should also be practising all times tables.
Numeracy
Please continue with your learnits at home.
This term we will soon be focusing on the 9x table, if you could practise this new table as well as the 4x table that would be much appreciated. Remember that the children should know the answers as fast as the learn-its.
If there are any children who need their learn-its updated please let me know. Some of the children have now begun to do subtraction and multiplication learn-its in class. If your child feels they are ready for this, please let me know.
Sum Dog– I will be setting a challenge on sumdog that covers times tables, data handling and fractions plus addition and subtraction strategies.
If anyone cannot manage to get on then I can provide alternate homework.
Spelling
No Spelling this week.

Thanks for all the fractions homework over the last two weeks.
