Welcome back and welcome to our new classroom. Welcome to the new children in the class! We are very excited to see you all and continue your school adventure. We hope that you have had an exciting and enjoyable summer.
In class 7, we are active learners and over the autumn term, we will be supporting your children to settle into their environment and routine. The children will be given many opportunities to develop and explore their own skills and actively learn. Within literacy the children will be exploring a variety of stories which they can then use to develop their communication, rhyming, reading and writing skills. Mathematics will develop their number recognition skills, counting accurately and solving practical number problems alongside forming the numbers correctly. Our topic is called “The Hive and The Chocolate Factory” and will focus on learning around different Roald Dahl stories, it will include learning around schools, families, harvest, autumn, looking after ourselves and many other learning opportunities. It will allow us the opportunity to develop our communication, understanding, exploration and design skills through a range of activities such as role play and art skill development
Your child will be taught through a mixture of teacher led, teacher guided and child initiated learning, both indoors and outdoors. Therefore, please ensure your child brings their coat to school each day so they are suitably clothed for outdoor activities.
Every week the children will spend time exploring the outdoor environment Please ensure that your child has a pair of wellies in a carrier bag for these sessions.
PE will take place every Wednesday. PE kits shall be kept in school until the end of each term. We recommend that you include both indoor and outdoor footwear for child, along with a tracksuit for the colder months.
At Palmers Cross, we encourage the children to become independent learners so please ensure that all clothes, shoes and bags have your child’s name on.
The children will also need indoor shoes for the new classroom, to help them feel cosy and comfortable in the environment.
We operate an open door policy, so please do not hesitate to speak to myself, Miss Biffin if you have any questions or messages, I will be available at the classroom doors at 8:30am and end of school 3:15pm or telephone school.
We are looking forward to a fun filled year of learning.
Many Thanks
Miss Biffin
