Indigo Class 2020 - 2021

Mrs O'Connor

Indigo Class Teacher

Welcome back to the Summer Term!

This term our focus is a ‘Midsummer Night’s Dream’, and our topic work will focus on links to this play and the question:

‘Does a journey ever end?’

We are working with North West Drama to develop a performance that we can take to the New Vic Theatre, Newcastle-Under-Lyme, to perform- this is one of the children’s ‘Explorer Curriculum Pledge- ‘perform onstage’. This will all follow Covid-19 safety protocols, and more information will be made available as the term progresses.

Spellings will continue to be introduced on Fridays- these will come home in the children’s reading diaries and I will also put them on Teams. We will review these over the following week so the children become familiar with spelling patterns as well as the words and meanings. They will be tested the following Thursday. We will also be focusing on the statutory spellings for years 3, 4, 5 and 6- these are at the bottom of this page.

Home Learning will continue to be handed out every Thursday via Teams and checked the following Wednesday night.

PE will be on a Tuesday and Friday this term.

For other curriculum areas please see this term’s ‘Medium term Plan (MTP)’ at the bottom of the page.

I can’t wait for an incredible last term with Indigo Class! As ever, thank you for all your support in these challenging times.
