 Reading:

Children should be reading for about 20 minutes each day at home. Please write in your child's reading journal if you have heard them read, and get them to do the same if they have read independently.

 In R.E. we will be exploring the questions: Why do Muslims call Muhammad the 'Seal of the Prophets'?' and 'How does believing Jesus is their Saviour inspire Christians to save and serve others?'

 Writing:

We will be writing an Indian folktale based around some of those found in the book 'Seasons od Splendour' by Madhur Jaffrey. We will also be writing poems to celebrate World Poetry Day.

In line with the new National Curriculum we will be working regularly to improve our spelling, punctuation and grammar.

Maths:

 We will be learning about place value, and addition and subtraction. Problem solving and reasoning will help embed our mathematical knowledge. There will be times tables tests every week.

Please encourage your child to continue to learn their times tables - they are SO important!
