Owls

Pupils in Owls class are the older pupils, those in years 4, 5 and 6.

 

 Please take a look at the working walls we are developing with the children to support the learning journey. Please feel free to take a closer look at these when you come for 'drop-in'.

 

We believe that home learning provides children with an opportunity to further their understanding, and is an important link in the school/parent partnership. Home Learning is set according to the school Home Learning Policy and includes learning spellings and tables, reading regularly and tasks linked to themes being covered at school. Many of these activities reinforce the skills and ideas in English and Mathematics currently being taught and help your child to develop independence in their learning.

As pupils go through the school the expectation is that children will spend more time on their home learning, as they prepare for the secondary phase of their education.

We ask parents to support children as they are encouraged to continue the learning process at home.

In Owls we learn spellings daily. These spellings are a combination of new spelling rules for years 5 and 6. We learn spellings through elicitation of the rules as well as fun and interactive games.
