PE Days
Mouse – Monday and Thursday
Badger – Tuesday and Wednesday
Squirrel – Monday and Friday
Rabbit – Thursday and Friday
Hedgehog – Tuesday and Wednesday
We suggest children bring their P.E kit in on a Monday and take it home on a Friday. This way, should there be any changes to the timetable, children will still have access to their kit.
Home Learning
Home learning will be set every Friday. This year, our home learning will be accessible through Google Classroom and will include a wide range of activities. Should your child have difficulty accessing Google Classroom due to issues with devices or internet, please let their teacher know as soon as possible.
As well as their weekly home learning, children are encouraged to practice their reading daily and their key word spelling and times tables three times a week.
Reading
Children will bring a library book home daily. This is a book that the children have picked to read for pleasure or to an adult at home. As well as this, children will be set books online through ‘Big Cat’. Your child will have a personal username and password for this which will allow them to access reading books set to match their current reading level. Being able to read and developing a love of reading underpins your child’s education. We ask that you support us with this by listening to your child read regularly. If you are unable to access ‘Big Cat’ for any reason, please let your child’s teacher know.
