Welcome to Horse Chestnut Tree!
We are a Year 4 and Year 5 class and our teacher is Miss Guest.
This half term we will be studying the history of the Anglo-Saxons and Scots!
Key Information:
PE – PE is every Monday afternoon; children will need to arrive at school wearing their PE kits. Please ensure long hair is tied back and earrings are taken out.
Homework – Maths homework is given out every Friday and is due back the next Friday. See the Topic homework grid below for more information.
Spelling – Spelling booklets will be sent home each Monday, enabling children to practice during the week ready for our Spelling test the following Monday.
TTRS – Please encourage your child to spend time practicing their Times Tables using the Times Table Rock Stars app on a daily basis.
Reading – Reading is such an important part of a child’s education. Please ensure your child reads at least three times a week and reading records are signed accordingly. Our school and class libraries have a large repertoire of books for your child to choose from if they require.
If you have any questions regarding routines, homework or just to have a general chat, please don’t hesitate to come and see me!
