Class 2 News

Hello and welcome back to the new term. I hope you had a relaxing and enjoyable Easter break. I can hardly believe we are in the last term of the year!!

Thank you for coming to the Class 2 Assembly, it was great to see so many of you. I do hope you enjoyed it. The children really worked hard and were so excited about the performance!

This term during Literacy we will be learning about and listening to the stories of Roald Dahl which will link to our class trip (details to follow). Please feel free to read Roald Dahl’s stories at home whenever possible as we will only have enough time to study ‘George’s Marvellous Medicine in any detail. Reading or listening to other Roald Dahl stories at home will enable the children to have a better understanding and feel for his work and will provide opportunities for discussion within the classroom. Just to let you know we have already read Fantastic Mr Fox!

PE during the second half of this term will be outside as we learn games skills and tactics, obviously this will be dependent on the weather but we will endeavour to go outside unless rain stops play! If we have a cold snap during this time please feel free to put some warm track suit bottoms in your son/daughter’s PE bag to keep them warm when we are outside.

Please continue to support your child’s learning outside school. Listening to your son/daughter read on a daily basis will to enable them to continue the progress they have made so far in their reading. Also, ‘Talk for writing’ homework is really important in developing your child’s writing ideas and giving them confidence in the Big Writing sessions. It really makes such a difference to the children’s learning.

If you have any spare time and would like to come in and help out at any time, even on a one of basis, please come and see me to arrange a mutually convenient time.

If I have missed anything please feel free to come and see me. Likewise if you have any other concerns or questions please come and see me, I am more than happy to deal with queries at any time.

Yours faithfully

Miss Faye Turner

Class 2 Teacher.
