A big welcome to Jade Class

from Mrs Stone, Mrs Di Pisa and Mrs Gingell

After settling in and getting to know all the new faces, our topic for the Autumn term is ‘Who am I and where do I live?’ We are going to be learning lots about who we are, our local area and learning some simple geographical skills.

Chatter Topics

Which Country do we live in?

What is the capital of our country?

Where do we live?

What is a map and how do we use it?

What is a globe?

Our PE days this term will be on a Tuesday and Thursday. Please ensure your child’s PE kit is in school for these days. We have still got an awful lot of PE kit and school uniform that is not named – we cannot take responsibility for unnamed clothing, so it is essential that all school uniform is labelled clearly with their name.

You can support your child’s learning at home by:

• Asking them about what they have learned about in school that day.
• Discussing the topics that are being covered together.
• Reading about the topics at home.
• Visiting the library to find out more about the topics for the term.
• Bringing anything relevant into school to share with the class if your child would like to.
• Practise counting carefully and in multiples (2s, 5s, 10s).
   
  Please remember all money coming into school needs to be in a sealed, named envelope so all monies can be accounted for.
