We will be looking at features of letter writing and writing our own letters to her on her important day.

Remeber to log onto TT Rockstars at home so you become fluent with knowing your timestables (Year 2's 2,5 and 10's, Year 3's 3,4 and 8's) We will continue our number work by looking at fractions. During the two terms we will be covering Statistics, time, length/height, position and direction and mass, capacity and temperature.
