We are looking forward to the Autumn term and sharing our exciting learning journey with you.
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 Year 5 are starting with "The Lost Book of Adventure", which is taking our children on a fabulous journey through many different areas of the world. Year 6 are reading "Darkest Dark", which is a book that surrounds a young boy who loves the world of space and wants to become an astronaut when he is older. 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 be investigating place value. . 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.
