D&T

Children are invited to bring in small, lightweight cardboard boxes (cereal boxes, toothpaste boxes but not shoe boxes). These will be used in our D&T lessons when we will learn to make a vehicle with wheels.

Gardening and Cooking:
 

Break time snacks

Polite reminder: Children are only allowed to bring fruit or vegetables as a snack.

School lunches

If your child is having a school lunch, please look at the school menu together and ensure they are prepared to eat the lunch. It's important that children have a healthy, balanced diet and not just rice or just pasta with nothing else. 

Learning from home for those self-isolating

If your child is self-isolating because they have tested positive for COVID, they should join our hybrid-lessons (unless they are too unwell). Please see this webpage for more details:

Home learning

Top education researchers tell us that homework has minimal impact for primary age pupils, unless it requires children to rehearse and practise.  Our routines to reflect this. The routines for children in this year group are as follows:

• Reading and/or talking about their reading to an adult for at least 20 minutes, 5 times a week. Complete your child’s reading record each time they read. Remember it doesn’t always have to be their school book. Reading records and reading books should be sent into school daily. Teachers will have a look at these to check regular reading is taking place at home.
• Learning spelling patterns linked to Year Group  expectations ready for use in dictation towards the end of every week. These spellings will be on year group notice boards and should be practised at home.
• Reciting multiplication tables to increase their fluency so that they can be applied in other areas of maths and problem solving. Log on to Timestable Rockstars!
• Half-termly creative home learning will be set at the start of each half term and will celebrated and fed back on during our creative home learning showcases.

You will be able to see your child’s progress through class exercise books for English and maths being sent home at least once during every term as well as at parent consultation meetings.
