English

The children will explore and create texts in a number of different forms including diary entries, newspaper articles and image poetry.

We will be continuing with spelling, punctuation and grammar (SPAG) work linked to GIMME 5. This includes punctuation, conjunctions, adverbials, different types of sentences and added description. Children are encouraged to think about these elements in each piece of writing they do across the curriculum.

Maths

In maths we will be sharpening up our claculation skills, looking at mental and written methods to set us up for the coming year of tricky year 5 problems.
