Welcome to the Clownfish class.

We hope you have had a lovely summer holiday!

We have lots of exciting learning opportunities planned for this term.

In English, we are going to be reading the texts ‘Peace at last’ and ‘National trust: Step inside homes’. In maths, we are going to be learning about place value, recognising numbers to 10 and then 20, understanding the quantities that are represented by numerals. We will also be learning about additions and subtractions within 10.

In History, we will be learning about houses and homes and thinking about changes within living memory. In Geography, we will be learning about homes in our town.

In Science, we will be working scientifically by examining seasonal changes and looking at how our world changes environmentally. We will also be focusing on materials. In Religious Education, we will be learning about what Christians believe God is like and in computing we will be working on computing systems and networks.

In Music, we will be performing the song, ‘Hey you!’ and in Design and Technology, we will be working on mechanisms. In Art and Design, we will be studying the work of Andy Goldsworthy, and we will be focusing on colour mixing and drawing. In PSHE, we will be working on being me in my world.

In PE, we will be doing ball skills and football fundamentals. This term, PE will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays so please ensure your child comes to school in their PE kit on these days and if they wear earrings that these are removed.

Please ensure your child brings their homework bag to school every day. Reading books will be changed every Tuesday and Thursday if they have read. Don’t forget to write in their reading journal so we can see when they have read with you. Your child will choose a new choosey book on a Friday for you to read to/with them. We will also be setting some homework on Teams. Login details to follow.

If you have any questions, please speak to a member of staff when dropping off or collecting your child.

Thank you for your continued support with your child’s learning.
