Yellow Class 2023 - 2024
Mrs Swallow
Yellow Class Teacher
Dear All,
Welcome back! I hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year.
This term our Topic is Bright Lights, Big City – we will be learning about modern London and London in the past. Highlights will include building bridges, learning about famous London Landmarks and a trip to Nantwich Museum. For more information see our medium term plan on the website.
A few reminders:
Reading - We will read every day with the children as part of a whole class reading session. Reading is such a vital part of your child’s learning so please read at home with the children; ten minutes a day really does make all the difference. Please write in your child’s reading diary so we know that they have read. They can then move along our reading stars – one star for every time they read. If the children read 5 times in a week they will get a sticker in a special bookmark.
Spellings – Spelling rules and patterns are taught on a daily basis in Yellow Class. There is no weekly spelling quiz.
Homework – there is no set homework, however on the weekly email I will encourage children to take part in an online maths game.
PE and outdoor learning - PE will be on a Wednesday. Children will need to come to school in PE kits every Wednesday. If we are doing outdoor learning – I will text/ email to let you know in advance. Waterproofs and wellies can be kept in school – they are useful to have in school so we can still get outside even on wet days. Please name everything!
Snacks – Please send snack in a SMALL container or just with your child’s name on. Remember we are a Nut Free school.
If you have any queries/ questions then please see me on the gate, email me or ring school and I will do my best to help dswallow@peartreeprimary.co.uk
Kind regards,
Debbie Swallow
