Let There Be Light! 💡
Class 3 had lot's of fun investigating reflective surfaces, in Science, as part of our 'Light' topic! 🔦🔥🕯️🌞
I hope you had an enjoyable summer. I would like to extend a warm welcome back to your child as they begin their first year in KS2. Below is a brief overview of the learning taking place during the Autumn term.
The pupils will be acting as Geologists in our topic, "Rocks and Soils," working scientifically to observe and classify different rocks, soils, and even examine fossils! Our thematic unit for this term is "That’s All Folks!" This topic will integrate the foundation subjects, focusing primarily on DT, Art, and Computing, to explore the work that takes place behind the scenes in animation. As mathematicians, the pupils will build upon their previous knowledge of place value, eventually progressing to mental and written methods of addition. In English, we will be planning a setting description, incorporating previously taught skills such as basic conjunctions, and expanded noun phrases.
PE sessions will take place on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Please ensure that PE kit is always in school kit can be kept on your child’s peg during the week. With colder weather approaching, children are welcome to bring tracksuit bottoms and jumpers. If your child requires new PE kit, it can be purchased from the school office.
Children are still expected to complete a reading journal activity of their choice after finishing each book. They should aim to complete at least one reading journal activity per week (examples of reading journal activities will be stuck inside their Reading Journal Book). Additional creative homework (purple book) will also be given out throughout the year.
Your ongoing support is greatly appreciated. If you have any questions or concerns in the meantime, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Kindest regards,
Miss E Morris (Class 3 Teacher) Mrs E Bromierska (Support staff)
