Spring 1
Happy New Year!
We have a short half term of just 5 weeks but we have lots of exciting things to come!
KEY LEARNING:
- It's History this half term and we will be mapping out the monarchy.
- KIRFs are focussed on the 9 and 11 times tables.
- This half term we will be swimming every Monday afternoon.
- In computing we are programming - the children have loved using Turtle Academy to create shapes with their screen turtles! (https://turtleacademy.com/playground)
As always, please do get in touch if there is anything you would like to discuss.
I look forward to seeing you all again for parent consultations at the end of the half term.
