Maths objectives that you could help with at home:

  • Keep going with your times tables and division facts for 2, 5 and 10x tables J
  • Understanding x and ÷ fact families e.g.

2×5=10, 5×2=10, 10÷5=2, 10÷2=5

  • Practice number bonds to 100 e.g. 35+__, 72+__, __+11 using your knowledge of number bonds to 10
  • Discussing properties of 2 and 3D shapes e.g. corners & sides (2D) and vertices, faces and edges (3D).
  • Finding symmetry and pattern in the world around you.

SPaG objectives that you could help with at home:

  • Spelling words with –el, -le, -il and –al endings e.g. camel, table, pencil, oval
  • Spelling words ending in –tion e.g. station, mention
  • Understanding the rule of dropping the /y/ and adding –ies when pluralising e.g. baby- babies, city- cities
  • Using suffixes at the ends of words e.g. happily, engagement, plentiful and talking about the spelling rules
  • Adding adverbs to verbs e.g. walked slowly, smiled happily
  • Using different sentence types in writing; most importantly questions & exclamations
