Here is the teaching timetable for Chestnut Class for this half term:
Maths
In this half term, we will be focusing on statistics and geometry.
Each morning, between 8:45 – 9am, the children will revisit prior learning through Early Bird Maths questions or tasks. These tasks are important for developing fluency and confidence in their learning. .
It is important that the children maintain their fluency in times tables, so should continue to practice regularly using TTRs and other times table games.

This half term we will be focusing on words that end in different suffixes
- -tion/ -sion/ -ssion/ -cian

We will continue to revisit word from Year 4, to ensure the children are confident with these.
