Boyce Class Updates

During Author Week, Boyce class learnt more about Frank Cottrell Boyce and how he found a passion for writing. We studied his book 'The Unforgotten Coat' and wrote biographies about our author.

Homework - This is set on ATOM learning. Please use the link Atom Learning to log in. The children all have their log in details. All homework is set on a Monday and due the following Monday.

As part of our commitment to fostering a love of learning, we have set some clear homework expectations. Each week, Maths homework will be assigned on a Monday and is due back by Friday. We also encourage children to play Times Tables Rock Stars (TTRS) three times weekly to boost their skills. Daily reading, either independently or with a parent, is essential for developing literacy. Additionally, spellings will be sent home every Monday, with a test taking place on Friday. The more engaged your child is with home-learning, the greater progress they will make throughout the year. Your support is invaluable to their success!

On Tuesdays, all children partake in PE. Please ensure they wear the correct kit (plain white t-shirt, black shorts or joggers) and trainers. Don’t forget a water bottle!
