We hope that you all have enjoyed the holidays. The spring term was a very busy one indeed. Below are a few quotes from the children’s most recent feedback forms.
- “I loved learning about past famous explorers.”
- “PE is great fun and we are really good at working in teams.”
- “I really like how much reading we do. We have lots of different reading types in our classroom.”
- “I feel that my fractions work has really improved. I wasn’t sure at first but now I get it.”
- “I find writing hard. The teachers help me and encourage me to check and edit my work.”
- “I love DT. We had made rafts, monsters, dens, been archeologists, and lots of cooking.”
Our summer term, once more, is packed full of learning.
Mini-topic: Electricity
Electricity is the theme for our learning for the next few weeks. We’ll identify common appliances that run on electricity, construct a simple electrical circuit, identify and name its basic parts, including cells, wires, bulbs, switches and buzzers.
Big-topic:
This term, we won’t be learning through a big-topic. Instead, we’ll have several mini-topics. In Science, we’ll learn about the simple functions of the basic parts of the digestive system in humans. Also, identify the different types of teeth in humans and their simple functions.
In History, we’re going to study The Egyptians – a fascinating period of time to explore and discover! 
Reading:
We’re starting the term with a class set of our new novel ‘Ottoline and the Yellow Cat.’ 
With a child each having a book, we can all follow the story much more easily and share the reading. We’ll explore the language, themes, context and our own opinions of this much loved story.
PE:
Kits are needed in school every Monday and Friday. Some children are not bringing the correct kit to school. Please ensure you are aware of the uniform policy. If you are unsure have a look on the website or check with one of us.
