Wow! What an exciting week here at Down Hall. The Year 3/4 children have been learning all about fractions in Maths. It is great to see our times table programme having an impact on our children's experiences. In English, the children have very much enjoyed the beginning of our unit on Performance Poetry. Here is a link to the wonderful Michael Rosen who has certainly captured the children's minds. https://forreadingaddicts.co.uk/poetry/10-silly-poems-stories-performed-michael-rosen/
Times Table Parent Workshop
Thank you to all the parents who attended the workshop on Tuesday afternoon. Our children were a credit to you and to our school community. Please read today's newsletter for more information regarding extra workshops coming up soon.
World Book Day - Thursday 3rd March
Yesterday we celebrated World Book Day at Down Hall! Our aim, as teachers, was to promote a love of reading and it was so lovely to see the children to bring in their favourite book to share in class with each other.
Here are some pictures of our day.

Must Do
- Reading: Remember 15-20 minutes everyday is super important. You will have taken your Reading Record home for your parents to comment on. These will be collected by teachers and checked regularly. Please bring your homework books back to school when you are finished so that we can check them. Thank you.
- Please make sure that your child is continuing to read and work on the Year 3 and 4 spellings which can be found in their reading record books.
- Accelerated Reader - when you are finished your book your teacher can change it for you. As soon as you are ready you can take a quiz at school. Remember that you need 3 100% scores to move up a level
- Times table practice - Please log on to TTRS and complete your challenge..
- Continue logging on to TTRS, Sumdog and Myon or Big Cat - your logins are stuck in the front cover of your Reading Records.
- Math's - Year 4 will be completing their statutory Multiplication Tables Check in June this year. To this end, please can you ensure your child is regularly accessing and practicing these at: https://mathsframe.co.uk/en/resources/resource/477/Multiplication-Tables-Check
- Send your teacher an email stating a song that you would like to sing. We hope to do some singing in music in our classes soon!
As always, we are available on our email. However, we are also available if you have any quick questions at the end of the day on the playground. Just give us a wave and we will pop over!
