Highlights from Home Y5&6 – Friday 1st May 2020

Another day, another huge success. Well done everybody for getting Y5&6 back to the top of the world Spelling Shed league, having been 6th at the start of the day. A journalist from the Shropshire Star has been in touch today wanting to write about your success on Spelling Shed and they are hoping to publish a report in their paper (and on their website) on Monday. So, when you accepted the challenge of proving to her that you are capable of getting back to the top of the league, you took on that challenge superbly. I’ve never seen scores like it! She was very impressed at your determination and concentration!

Can you calculate how far clear you are from the class in 2nd place now?

2. Year 2 Mrs Styles Phonics, Paget Primary School, England 802,605,012
