We are all really happy and excited to back at school and looking forward to learning lots of new topics this year. Our Class teacher is Mrs. Alison Shepperson. Mrs. Debbie Moore is our KS1 HLTA and she will be supporting our class on Monday afternoons and Tuesday mornings.
Curriculum
We take the National Curriculum as the basis of our learning and tailor it to the different requirements of the children in the class. To find out more about what we are learning this term, you can download the topic web using the link on the right hand side of the page.
Spellings
We have weekly spellings every Wednesday.
Homework
If there is a requirement for homework it will be given out on Fridays, the homework may vary from researching topics to extended pieces of work for example designing and producing a poster. Completed homework will be handed in weekly or by the date set by the class teacher.
Life in Cherry Class
Cherry Class are friendly, helpful and enthusiastic. We all are keen to share our ideas and show what we can do. We are working on settling quickly to our learning and to develop our independent learning styles. We love to show interesting objects to one another and we love reading aloud to the rest of the class.
PE days are Tuesdays (outdoors) and Wednesdays (indoors). Please ensure your child has suitable clothing especially for PE days. PE kits should include a T-Shirt, shorts, trainers, jogging bottoms and a warm top for outdoor PE. Extra socks during the Autumn/Winter months would be really useful especially if some children are wearing tights. Please remember to label all clothing thank you.
Supporting your child
There are so many ways to support your child's success. Reading with your child is a great way to start. Ask them questions about what they are reading and what the story means. In maths we are going to work on our problem solving skills and our mental maths mastery along with the skills we need to succeed in maths.
