What a lovely week Cherry Class has had! The children have all settled back into school life so well and they have loved being back with their friends. The children have got straight back into learning new things and working hard.
We have started our place value topic in Maths, along with beginning to practice and rehearse of our times tables (a huge focus for us this year!) In English we have begun writing a narrative based on the short Disney film, Feast. The children are very excited to find out what happens as we get further into the plot. In science we are exploring states of matter and are very much looking forward to making Oobleck next week to identify the differences between states! These are just a few of the highlights so far and there is much more to come so keep an eye on our Facebook page and website for further Cherry Class updates.
Important Information:
Tuesday – Forest
Forest school will take place regardless of the weather (unless extreme) so please can you ensure your child is wearing appropriate clothing (long sleeve tops and trousers) as well as bringing their wellies and waterproofs in a separate labelled bag to change in and out of, if necessary.
Thursday – PE
Please could children come into school wearing the correct PE kit (Longvernal P.E. t-shirt, black shorts or sports trousers and trainers). PE will be outside for the first term, so black Longvernal fleeces or green Longvernal jumpers can also be worn.
Homework –
Weekly spellings – found in your child’s Reading Record and tested every Friday.
Read a minimum of 3 times a week (recorded in their reading log)
Complete a scrapbook style journal entry
Complete 10 minutes of Doodle Maths/Tables
Practise their times tables as often as possible.
I am very much looking forward to an exciting year ahead!
