Summer Targets
Each half term we set targets for the children in Reading, Writing and Maths.
At the end of the term we have a challenge assembly which the children enjoy immensely.
Our targets are:
Maths:

Children will receive a mathematical problem in assembly and be asked to explain their method in solving it.

Writing:
To perform their work aloud using intonation and volume so that the meaning is clear.
Each class to choose and film one boy and girl perform their opening to their creative piece of writing. Two final children will be chosen who will perform in to Mrs Hyams.
