It is the best way to keep up to date with what the Hedgehogs are learning. There will be lots of photos on our page.
Our question for this term is 'Who has shaken up our world?'
We are learning all about about historically significant people who
have had a major impact on the world. We will learn to use
timelines, stories and historical sources to find out about the people
featured and use historical models to explore their significance. We will
be learning about people such as Rosa Parks and Neil Armstrong!
Please see the knowledge organiser sent home at the start of Autumn term to see in detail what we are covering.
We have new spellings weekly. We will set these as assigmnents on Spelling Shed for you to practise at home.
Reading is important!
Oxford Owl
Use this website to read books at home on your PC or tablet!
We encourage children to read as much as possible at school, but they should be reading at least 20 minutes a day with someone at home too. Let your child re-read books. Reading the same words over and over again helps to build fluency.
If your child gets stuck on a word, encourage him/her to sound it out. If it is really too tricky, or can’t be sounded out, just supply them with the word and carry on reading.
You could even take turns reading. By listening to your fluent reading, your child will hear what good readers sound like. After you’ve read a short passage, ask your child to read the same passage. This will give him/her the chance to practice reading with expression.
Enjoy this special time together. By doing so, you will encourage a lifelong love of reading.
