On behalf of all the adults and pupils, welcome to our class.

Key Reminders

• We arrive at school at 8.50am. We finish at 3.30pm.
• Mondays and Thursdays are our PE days.
• Spellings and spelling homework is given (and tested) every week on Fridays with house points awarded for full marks or outstanding effort.
• Practice your times tables on Times Table Rockstars each week. Focus on the tables you do not know or are unsure about. If you are a times table master you still need to practice to keep your skills sharp!.
• Tables are tested weekly with house points given to children who improve on their previous scores. 
• Please use Microsoft Teams for the most current updates. Your child will have a login.

Reading

• We aim for every child to read at least three times a week, and in 2E, for the childrens' sakes, we very much see this as a minimum. Please sign planners, once you have heard your child read. If your child is a fluent reader, they can read independently and get an adult to sign their diary to confirm this. We want to be reading champions every week so please help us as much as possible. 
• Also, every time your child reads three times in one week, they will  get a square marked off on their challenge board at the back of their reading diary. An adult in school will sign and date this square. We will reward your child with reading pins (bronze, silver and gold) as they accumulate the required amount of squares.
• A fun and worthwhile strategy is to share a reading session, perhaps taking a paragraph or page each. That way, your child hears a model reader!

Whole School Values

Each month, the whole school will focus on an aspect of British Values.

Children demonstrating behaviour linked to the value of the month can receive a value award in our Shining Star assemblies.
