Hello and a warm welcome to Maple Class!
We have had a great start to 2024 and the children are enthused in their learning so far!
This half term, our class text is ‘Escape from Pompeii,’ and we are going to be writing stories, explanation and discussion texts based on this story.
In Maths, we will be working on numbers up to 1000. We will be becoming proficient at adding and subtracting 3 digit numbers using a range of different strategies. We will also be learning about fractions.
During our Science lessons, we will be learning about rocks- learning to identify rocks, talk about their properties, plan an experiment and thinking of ways to group them.
Mrs Johnson will be teaching the children French and RE on Wednesday afternoons.
In Geography, the children will be learning about volcanoes, thinking about how they are formed and where and when they occur.
We will be learning about artists such as Leonardo da Vinci and different colours and tones before creating our own Renaissance pieces.
PE lessons will be on Monday and Friday. During the sessions, we will be creating dance duets based on volcanoes. We will also be starting our unit on Rugby.
The children will be developing their computing skills through many areas of the curriculum and will be learning more about coding in their discrete computing sessions.
Homework will be posted on Showbie on Friday. Please encourage your child to read regularly at home and to record this on Showbie.
If you have any questions or queries, please feel free to catch me at the start or end of the day. Alternatively, if you have a longer query, please contact the school office to arrange a longer appointment or call back.
Also, don’t forget to follow our Twitter page as well as the Strike Lane blog page to keep up with what we have been up to in class.
Kind regards,
Miss Owens
