Class 4 2020 - 2021

Mr Allton

Teacher

Welcome to Class 4

It is nice to have everyone back in class and a little bit of normality returning to school. The children have responded very well to the new rules in school, washing their hands and keeping 2 metres apart when possible. It will all become the new norm soon.

Staff

Mr Greenwood will be working in class with me and the children this year and he is looking forward to group activities and helping the children.

Homework

Homework will start shortly with Maths and English being done each week. Children can continue with Times Tables Rock Stars at home and will also receive spellings each week which will be tested on a Friday.

P.E. days

PE will be on a Monday and Wednesday so the children need to bring their kits in on a Monday and take them home after Wednesday to be washed ready for the next week. Please ensure your child has their full kit in school and it is labelled.

Timetable

This half term, our topic is “A United Kingdom” and we will be looking at Legends in English as well as recapping on SPaG work from the previous year. Likewise, in Maths, we are covering work the children missed in lockdown to get everyone up to speed. In PE, we will be developing ball skills in netball and basketball and in computing, looking at databases. Our History topic is Anglo-Saxons and we will be focusing on the Bible in RE.

Google Classroom

In the event of your child needing to isolate, we have set up Google Classroom, and your children can access the work being done in class at home. Your child will be told all about this when it is set up and be experts in it before you know it (Year 6 children had some experience of it last year sharing documents online).

Due to the restrictions at school, I appreciate that I cannot see you face to face as we have in the past, but if you have any concerns, please feel free to phone the school to speak to me or email me at class4@sjsm.lancs.sch.uk

Thank you for your continued support

Mr Allton & Mr Greenwood
