PE Lessons and Kit

Our PE lessons take place on Monday and Tuesday. It is recommended that your child arrives wearing their kit and suitable footwear especially as we are approaching the winter months. This term we will be having a games session with the Manchester City coaches on a Monday and either a gymnastics or a dance session on a Tuesday.

Homework

Children will be given homework on Fridays; homework will focus on the week's learning. Children will also take part in 'The Grand Spell' each week; learning a number of different spelling rules. Results will be posted every Friday on our class Dojo page.

Every home is busy and it can often feel as though there is no time for homework. However, we will not give out huge amounts of work to do at home. We recommend no more than 20 - 30 minutes per night with additional time set aside for your child to read. If you have any concerns about your child's homework please come and speak to Mrs Coyle or Mrs Collins.

Updates

Can you please check the website and Class Dojo regularly as there will be updates on them both when we get them.

Holy Communion

Unfortunately the Holy Communion has been postponed and we will update you on information when we get it.

Enjoying Rock star day.

Maths

Our focus for the first half term is all to do with Number. We will be exploring different topics within number including; Place Value, Addition and Subtraction.

R.E.

We are going to discuss what it is like and what it means to be a part of a family. Also, we are going to think about being a part of Jesus' family.

English

We are delving into the Stone Age this half-term, which links to our History topic. We will be writing historical stories, using the book, Stone Age Boy. Also, we will be making Stone Age information leaflets. The book, Dear Santa, by Alan Durant, will help us with our letter writing!
