Autumn 2 - Revolution

During the Autumn term, we will be looking at the lives of the people living in Victorian Britain.

Bedrock Learning
This term we are excited to introduce a new learning platform 'Bedrock'. This will enhance pupil learning and they will experience engaging, language-rich fiction and non-fiction texts that expand their knowledge of the world as well as their vocabulary. All pupils will be given log in details when they return after the Easter holidays.
PE
Our PE day is Monday. Please come to school wearing full PE kit including suitable footwear for outdoor activities. This term will be 'Athletics'.

Reading at Home
Please listen to your child read every day and ensure that their Reading Diary is signed to confirm this. We are checking Reading Diaries each week and children who have not read at home will have an opportunity to read in school by reading to staff during the morning break time on a Friday.
Homework
Homework will be set each Friday. It is expected that pupils return their homework by the following Thursday to ensure that it can be marked and feedback given.
Remember to check Seesaw and Purple Mash for additional activities that are set.
Seesaw
Thank you to all of the parents who have signed up for Seesaw. It is a wonderful platform for us to use to set work for the pupils and for them to share the work that they do in school with those at home. All pupils have their Seesaw home learning code in their reading diaries to access their page at home.
