What we are learning this term
We will start the year focusing on our concept driven project ‘Do we need to protect everything that is at risk?' Key concepts/ vocabulary we will discuss and use to drive this project are protect, loss, sustainability and community.
PE and swimming
This term PE is on a Wednesday so please ensure children come to school wearing their PE kit on this day. Our school PE kit is a white polo shirt and black shorts with trainers or pumps. As the weather gets colder, the children are welcome to wear black jogging bottoms and a black jumper/their red school jumper.

The class will be swimming on a Thursday so please send them in with their swimming kit (trunks or a full swimming costume) and a towel.
Homework
Homework will be set on Friday to be completed by the following Wednesday. Ideally, we would love children to read everyday and be read to as often as possible to build up their vocabulary and understanding of texts. Spellings will be set and from time-to-time appropriate maths or further literacy set. Alongside this we will send home a list of activities based on the project for that term where children can choose what they would like to do.
If you have any questions then please get in touch via email or class dojo.
