Welcome to our class! 

I look forward to us learning together this year.

Our name is Fine Class, this is after the author, Anne Fine.  She has written many books, including, Diary of a Killer Cat, Bill's New Frock, Flour Babies, Angel of Nitshill Road and Madame Doubtfire.  Challenge - have a go at reading one/some of them!  

Have you already read some of her books? She has written over 70 children's books!

Spelling Home Learning

The home learning for our spellings will now be sent home on a Tuesday and back in by the following Monday, to give everyone more time at home to learn them.  

Our spellings are now online!  We use Spelling Shed (click on the link) to help us with different games to learn our spellings.  All log in details for this are in our home learning books and also in our reading journals.  

Each week I will send home a spelling list stuck in our home learning books.

Please click on the stars below to guide you to the different areas of learning!

Literacy

Within literacy our big focus will be filling any of our knowledge gaps for grammar.  Things to look at will include - homophones, using conjunctions (and, so, because, after, then, but.....) and use of adverbs (quickly, quietly.....).  You could write a story incorporating all of these.

You could also be practicing your Spelling Shed spelling words and handwriting practice with them.

DO REMEMBER TO - continue working on your Times Table Rock Stars and Maths Shed!

In Computing the children continue to consider how to keep themselves safe when working online or using their mobile phones. It is something that we believe is very important and the children regularly have time to reinforce their knowledge of the ways to ensure they stay safe and happy whilst enjoying time on the computers. An excellent site for both children and parents is the Think U Know site. The web address is www.thinkuknow.co.uk and it is well worth a visit.

The children can also enjoy lots of activities and extend their learning by visiting Purple Mash.

Purple Mash is an ever growing online creative space especially for learners aged 3 - 11. This award winning site is filled with hundreds of fun educational activities in the form of projects, games, apps and tools. Being hosted online, you can access Purple Mash and your saved online files wherever you are and whenever you wish.
