Welcome to the Owls Class!
I hope you all had a fantastic summer holiday, but are happy to be back at school!
The Owls are a mixed Y5/6 class of 32 pupils. The class teacher is Mr.Reeve and the Owls teaching assistants are Mrs. Milne and Mrs Burnett who work each morning (and some aftrernoons) with the class.
We all enjoyed a lovely final assembly by last year's pupils and we wish our former pupils all of the best for the future. I am sure we will get to hear about the progress throughout the year. It is now time to look forward to the new school year and welcome 14 new Y5s to the Owls Class. It was lovely to spend taster mornings with the new class and to do a range of activities together.
The first term of the year is always busy and we wil be beginning lots of new topics.
In English lessons, our class novel is "Matilda" by Roald Dahl. We will be enjoying the story together and exploring how the author engages and entertains us!
We will study a range of mathematical themes this term including number strategies, decimals, fractions, time and shape
Our Science topic is "Properties of Materials." There will lots of prectical activities and investigations.
In History we will be examining the Maya, researching what made this ancient civilisation interesting and special, and exploring the evidence they left behind. We will explore the types of food they ate and think about the food that we eat today and where it comes from.
PE lessons will be taught on Tuesday mornings by Ben, from Premier Education. On Thursday afternoons, half of the class will go swimming, while the other will take part in outdoor games.
Our RE topic this term is Christianity: What does it mean if God is loving and holy? Our school value this term is "Thankfulness."
In computer sessions, we will learn how to make our own quizzes using 'PowerPoint' and 'Scratch' programs.
Don't forget to bring to school your achievements from home to share in our Friday assemblies. Get your photo displayed on our achievement board! Well done to everyone who did this last year.
