This page is dedicated to all the exciting things we will be doing in class this year.

Term 2 2025

Topic

Our topic this term is:

‘What was great about the Ancient Greeks?’

Owls will be listening to amazing Greek myths, finding out about mythical creatures and so much more this term! Make sure you ask your child about their learning and see if they can retell you some of those fabulous myths.

Maths

In Maths, we're going to be focusing on multiplication and division. The more the children know their times tables, the easier they will find a whole range of areas in maths!

Science

We are continuing to look into the Big Idea in Science of ‘There are forces that can act upon objects; sometimes without there being any contact’. The children have enjoyed it so far but the best is yet to come!

PE

PE will still be on a Wednesday morning and Thursday afternoon. Children should bring in their PE kit (Plimsolls/trainers, shorts/tracksuit bottoms, t-shirt and jumper) at the beginning of the term or on PE days. Please note, children with earrings need to be able to remove them themselves prior to PE due to health and safety.

Reading, spellings and times tables

Please try to read with your child every day, either their book from school or a book of your choice from home. Writing a note confirming this will allow your child to receive dojo points and reward time! Each week, your child will have some spellings to practice at home. We will complete a spelling test on a Friday. Dojos will be awarded for those that get 8 or more or improve on their previous score. In addition to these, we are having a push towards learning times tables this year. Each week, the children will be practicing a particular times table in class. Continuing this learning at home will benefit your child’s learning.

I have sent out this term’s homework grid on. This grid consists of tasks and activities that are linked to the topics that we are learning this term.

Each topic will be worth house points and it is up to you and your child how many you complete over the coming weeks. Homework books will be sent out and tasks can be handed in as and when they are completed. Please ask or email me if you have any questions.
