Our key question, that we will responding to at the end of the unit, is ‘Has anyone been to the moon and how do we know?’  We will be exploring this key historical event and using associated vocabulary.

Values: The value that we are concentrating on this half term is resilience. Who will be our champion? We need to continue to demonstrate our other values: Boundaries, Respect, Self-regulation, Focus and Independence. We are celebrating our in-class achievements using Class Dojo. As a class, we need to work together to achieve our class stars.  Remember to share with us any ‘Outside School Achievements’ as we love to hear about them and we will celebrate these in school!

Summer2 Monsters And Aliens Homework

A menu of homework choices (that are cross curricular) have been given out in pupils’ homework books- a minimum of 3 pieces need to be handed in at the end of this half term. Also, please try to ensure that an adult at home reads for a few minutes each day with your child as this will hugely improve the quality of their learning in all subject areas.
