IMPORTANT – RHINO class closure

Unfortunately Mr Glover has now tested positive for covid, so we cannot staff Rhino class on Monday. We are going to put in place the same closure period as the other classes: Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday for the time being and try to get a supply teacher in place.
Mr Hughes is now the last man standing, so we want to do our best to keep the Jaguars safe and well. Please can Jaguar children carry out a lateral flow before returning to school on Monday and please can we ask that you do not send them in if they have symptoms or precautionary symptoms. The children who have tested positive have mostly had headache or tummy ache.

We are so sad and sorry to have to do this but the most important thing is to get everyone well again.

Take care everyone and thank you for your understanding.

Positive Case – Rhino & Tiger Classes

We have been made aware that we have a positive case of coronavirus (COVID-19) in Tiger & Rhino Class.

We have followed the national guidance and have identified that your child has been in close contact with the affected person.  In line with the national guidance, your child does not need to self-isolate but we strongly advise that they have a PCR test as soon as possible.  They do not have to isolate when waiting on the PCR result unless they have symptoms of COVID-19. However, if you wish to keep them at home whilst waiting for results, you are welcome to do so.

If your child has any of the precautionary symptoms associated with COVID (headaches, aches & pains, feeling tired without any good reason, sore throat, runny nose, sneezing and tummy ache/sickness in children) we would strongly advise that you take them for a PCR test as soon as possible and keep them at home whilst waiting for results.

If you have any questions, please contact Rachel in the school office.  Thank you for your continued support in helping us to prevent the spread in these difficult times.

X Tables Check – Year 4

The year 4 x times tables check is scheduled to take place this academic year during the summer term, around June time. This will involve all year 4 pupils taking an online x test. The format of the test will be for the children to answer 25 questions in a given time. We will be covering work on this class as well using laptops and ipads to practise a version of the test itself. But it would be really helpful if you could support your children at home to help them learn all their x tables up to 12 x 12.

Click on the link below to access an example of the test to have a practise. There are 6 seconds to answer each question and questions are generated randomly from the 1 to 12 x tables.

Times Tables Check Test

You can also use the Top Marks website to practise x tables with a game called Hit the Button. Here you can choose a x table to practise as well select division to practise x tables using the inverse method. Click on the link below to access.

Hit The Button

The children are also bringing home a x tables poster and x tables work book. They can display the poster at home and use the book to practise x tables as well as record the tricky bits, patterns and top tips to help them remember each x table by heart.

Please encourage your child to practise and learn their x tables as often as possible. As well as helping them with the x tables check it is also such an important life skill.

Below are some useful documents:

Top tips and games

9 x Table Hands

3, 4 and 8 Activity Booklet

7 x Table Activity Booklet

Good luck with your learning

We are so lucky at Myddle CE Primary to have Mrs Kessel-fell teaching the pupils their music lessons every Thursday. This half term, she has been teaching the children the ukelele. Here are some of the pupils continuing to practise with this instrument this week.

Y5&6 Tag Rugby Tournament

Well done to the ten Y5&6 boys and girls who represented Myddle CE Primary at a Tag Rugby competition this morning at Corbet School. The children performed very well and gained a great amount from the experience, winning two and drawing one of their five games. A special mention to Sophie, our player of the tournament, who made some great runs with the ball, got on the scoresheet herself and knew the rules of the game really well. It was great to have the opportunity to take part in competitive fixtures again against other local schools.

Here are some of the photographs of the team in action………

Frog Club in Rhino Class

In Rhino class, we have introduced a maths programme called Frog Club in Rhino class.  This is an scheme that encourages children to have faster recall of number facts. The programme starts with the 10 club and goes through to 99 club and then onto Superstars Division and Superstars Fractions.

By learning these number facts, we really hope that this programme will help your child carry out calculations more easily as they learn to use and apply their knowledge.

Each week, on a Friday, the children will have 5 minutes to complete the test for the club they have been assigned. In order to move on to the next club, they must answer all questions correctly in the time.

Below is a list of all the clubs and the content covered in each.

You can help your child at home by practising fast recall of the number facts in each club.  Click on the link to access each test.
