Welcome to the Spring term!
Our teacher is Miss Williams and our teaching assistants are Mrs Moore and Mrs Hooton. Mrs Edwards will be helping us with our ICT lessons and Mr Trueman (from Leicestershire Music Services) will be teaching us singing and the ukulele in Music.
This half term we will develop and extend our learning through lots of exciting activities and topics, including: The Roman Empire in History, Classification and Living Things in Science, collage in Art, and Family and Friends in PSHE.
PE will be gymnastics on Monday mornings and hockey on Friday afternoons. Please ensure your child has their P.E. kit in school all week so that we can adapt to the weather conditions. As the weather is particularly cold at the moment, please ensure that their outdoor PE kit is complete. Remember that earrings and watches must be removed for all P.E. lessons.
Music will be on Wednesday afternoons. The children will soon be able to bring their ukulele home so please encourage them to practise the skills they have learned during the lessons. Please ensure that they bring it back into school on Tuesdays so they always have it for the lesson.

Homework will be set on Fridays and needs to be finished by Thursday morning, unless otherwise directed. This will include a piece of written maths (to support our learning in class) and 30 minutes of Times Tables Rock Stars. Spelling tasks, focused on the week's key words, and topic-based work will be sent home sometimes too.
We like the children to read to an adult at home for 15 minutes at least 3 times a week. Please remember to sign and date your child's reading diary every time you hear them so there's an up-to-date record. Please also make a note of any reading issues that they may need help with in school. It's also really beneficial for your children to hear you read to them so please try to include this in your weekly sessions.
