Welcome back to Class 7! We are very excited to see you all and continue your school adventure. We have had big changes this holiday and are ready to support your child with the move.
We hope that you have had an exciting and enjoyable Easter break.
In class 7, we are active learners and over the summer term, we will be supporting your children to settle into their environment and routine. The children will be given many opportunities to develop their critical thinking, 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, 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 “No place like home” and will focus on learning about different types of house and who may live in them within a variety of environments. Through the topic we will be developing our communication, understanding, exploration and design skills through a range of activities such as role play, art skill development and discussion time.
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. As the weather gets warmer, hopefully. Please can you child come with a sun hat and suncream applied.
Every week the children will spend time exploring the outdoor environment and participate in woodland activities. Please ensure that your child has a pair of wellies in a carrier bag for these sessions.
PE will take place every Thursday. 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. Please make sure on warmer days your child has suncream on before coming to school and a sun hat and sun cream are in their bag.
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.
We operate an open door policy, so please do not hesitate to speak to myself, Miss Biffin, or Mrs Marlow if you have any questions or messages, I will be available at the classroom doors at 8:30am and end of school 3:25pm or at the end of the telephone.
We are looking forward to a fun filled summer term .
Many Thanks
Miss Biffin
