Y1 and Y2 – Nethercote

Summer Term

It has been wonderful to see all the children in Nethercote class after our Easter break and hearing about all their adventures over the last two weeks.

We have made an enthusiastic start to our learning, covering some classic children’s literature in the form of Beatrix Potter and becoming great problem solvers in our Maths work.

Details of what we will be covering in each area of the curriculum can be found in the curriculum map (see below).

 

Homework

Homework includes hearing your child read for ten minutes at least four times a week.  They can read anything to you; a school reading book, a library book, an information book or a comic or magazine – the most important thing is they are practising and developing their reading skills.  If your child has read to you, this can be counted as one of their reads to be recorded in their reading diaries.  Book bags, reading diaries and school reading books should be in school every day.  Please check Google Classroom for homework.

 

PE
PE will continue to be on Mondays and Wednesdays. On these days children must come to school wearing their PE kit which includes a t-shirt in their house colour. Year 2 have swimming lessons on Tuesday morning up to half term.

 

Forest School

Forest School continues on a Tuesday afternoon for Year 1. Year 2 will join us again once swimming has finished. Children need to come to school in their school uniform and will get changed for Forest School after lunchtime has finished.  Please remember we go to Forest School in all weathers so children will need the appropriate clothing.

 

It has been lovely to catch up with some of you already at the school gate in the mornings and at 3.00.  If you would like to discuss anything please try to catch me then or email the school office and we can arrange a mutually convenient time.

 

Thank you for you continued support and I look forward to another exciting term full of fun and learning!
