PE.

We have two PE sessions each week on Tuesday (outdoor) and Thursday (indoor). Please ensure that your child is wearing their PE kit (white t-shirt, shorts, leggings, tracksuit bottoms, trainers, etc) on these days. If your child wears earrings, please ensure that these are removed before school or replace these with plastic sports earrings.

Book Club.

Beginning in Year 3, all children will be involved in Book Club. Children will read a section of a text chosen by the teacher, for approximately 20 minutes every day, within a small group. As well as reading and listening to each other, there is opportunity for lots of discussion and 'book talk'. At the end of each session, the children will be set a short homework assignment, for example, to read the next 5-10 pages of their text, in preparation for the next day's Book Club session. They may also be set a short activity to complete alongside, and related to their reading.

Reading homework can be done independently, or with an adult. Therefore, children will need to take their book home every day and bring it back to school the next day in an excellent condition. We aim to expose children to different text types, authors and themes throughout the year.

Spellings

Spelling homework will also be sent home each week. This will consist of 12 spellings (6 'Core' and 6 'Challenge' words).
