Reading - We read or share texts at least three times a day at school. We have a text that we base our English work around. This half term continues with Tuesday in Year 5 and When The Sky Falls in Year 6. We also have a class text which we share with our pupils at the end of the day. We have daily reading sessions this looks at numerous different text types, some of our pupils have a 1:1 reading session daily aswell. Please tweet our authors and see if you get a response!
In Maths we will starting to investigate ratio and decimals, using our place value knowledge from last term. We will then be investigating the world of fractions. Hit the button is a game we use in class for our retrieval number facts. Click the link below and have a go.

Please remember to use Timestables Rockstars! We have battles weekly and we love looking at your progress!
At Egremont we strive to read 5 times each week, please support your child by reading with them at home and ensuring they bring their book bag in daily. They can track their progress on their class tracking chart.

Our children have Break the Mould teaching this term to support our children with their leadership skills. They will be working with the coaches to become mentors on our yard. Currently we have play leaders in our Y5 classes who work with our children to lead and facilitate games on the yard. If this applies to your child please ensure they are dressed appropriately.
