Welcome to the Owls Class!
We are a Y5/6 class of 33 pupils. The class teacher is Mr.Reeve and the Owls teaching assistants (on different days and times!) are Mrs. Milne, Mrs. Burnett and Mrs. Grundey.
It's our final term of the school year. Term 5 was short, but very busy for the Owls with SATS (for Y6s). The Y6 pupils visited Lincoln Cathedral for the Lincolnshire Church Schools Festival. We began our musical instrument lessons with Mrs Benson with pupils learning to play trumpets, trombones, saxophines and clarinets. As well as musical instrument lessons this term, we will be learning songs from "Hoodwinked" (a musical based on the story of Robin Hood).
Last term, the novel 'The Midnight Fox,' inspired us to create our own narratives and made movies and animations about foxes.
This term will be very busy with all Y6 pupils enjoying 'taster days' at their next schools. On Wednesday mornings, we will begin our Transition mornings with the Y4 pupils joining the (next) Owls Class with Y5. The Y6 pupils will take part in a range of activities together, including welcoming visitors, photography, leavers' book writing and art work and planning their very own Leavers' Assembly.
In English lessons, we will be exploring a range of non-fiction text styles. Our class book is "Tales from Outer Suburbia" by Shaun Tan (a collection of short stories that will make you think!).
Our Science topic is Electriicty. In History we will continue to explore how and why life changed during the Stone Age and Iron Age, whille in Geography we will investigate the benefits of trading with people around the world.
French lessons will be taught by Mrs L. Burnett on Wednesday afternoons. PE lessons will be taught on Tuesday mornings by Ben, from Premier Education. On Thursday afternoons the whole class will take part in Key Stage 2 outdoor games. Sports Day will take place on Tuesday 24th June.
Our RE topic this term is "Fogiveness" and we will explore how this word links to different religious faiths.
Don't forget to bring to school your achievements from home to share in our Friday assembly. Get your photo displayed on our achievement board! Well done to everyone who has done this already!
