School closure

Whilst school is closed, I will be emailing your children with work weekly and giving feedback daily when work is emailed back. There is lots of work on sharepoint but I'll also put the packs here in case you are having any trouble accessing it. Please email me at if you need anything/have any questions. Take care. Mrs Anderson.

https://stories.audible.com/start-listen

For as long as schools are closed, we're open. Starting today, kids everywhere can instantly stream an incredible collection of stories, including titles across six different languages, that will help them continue dreaming, learning, and just being kids. All stories are free to stream on your desktop, laptop, phone or tablet. Explore the collection, select a title and start listening.

Autumn term

Welcome back! We hope you've had a lovely summer and are ready to learn! This term we will be learning about poetry and story writing in literacy, number and place value in maths, mountains, rivers and costs in topic, states of matter in science and landscapes in art. Please see our Curriculum Overview below for an in depth look at what your child will be learning this term. Also, please remember to read at home every night and to go on TT Rock Stars and Mathletics as often as you can. Thank you!

General Notices

The children will receive 3 pieces of home work each Friday. They will need to complete maths, literacy and spellings over the weekend and return it by the following Wednesday.

P.E - The class will participate in sessions on a Thursday afternoon. They will require full P.E kit with appropriate footwear. For the first half term the children will be swimming, and therefore require a costume and towel. A reminder that children must not wear ear rings on swimming days and that any ear rings that are worn must be studs.. 

Our new topic is The Grand Canyon

We are looking forward to finding out more about this spectacular natural phenomenon and more about the continent of North America. 

Please look at our knowledge organiser for more information :)

 Super Science Day!

During our science afternoon, we were asked to observe changes. We decided to see what happens when white vinegar is mixed with bicarbonate of soda.

Happy World Book Day!

Chinese New Year

A big THANK YOU to all the parents and carers who came along to our Christmas Crafts afternoon. We made Christmas cards, paper baubles  and silly elves on lollipop sticks!. Everyone had a jolly festive time!

Joyeux Noel!

We created Christmas cards with a French twist! Tres bien!

Poetry

We wrote our own poem based on Mrs Anderson's Christmas jumper then we wrote them up beautifully in our extended writing books. They look amazing!
