Welcome back everyone!

We hope you had a lovely Easter break and enjoyed a well deserved rest! Well done on your efforts in our first week back, the sun has been shining and you have worked super hard once again!

As it is a new term, we would like you to work on our new KIRF of cube numbers. For your homework this week, we would like you to practice calculating cube numbers and trying to recall them to a grown up. Please see the sheets attached and complete the level of which you usually would. Parents, please see the attached guidance on this terms new KIRF.

We would also like you to continue to practice your times tables by using TTRS to polish up your knowledge. Practising little and often over the holidays allows you to really embed your times tables knowledge, keep your memory of times tables solid, make you more confident when using your times tables in maths - and of course more confident for our maths challenge. Practising for 10-15 minutes a day would be our suggested time - beginning with Garage before moving onto a different TTRS game.

Please continue to read daily and record your reading in your reading journal. A minimum of 20 minutes daily would be our recommendation. Discussing the book with your family: likes, dislikes, any patterns and connections between this book and another text and any questions you have as a reader. If there are any words that are unfamiliar to you, please discuss them with your adults - or magpie them in a notebook for us to discuss in school.   

Many thanks,

The Year 5 team.
