Oak Class

A caring village school with a family feel where relationships are at the heart of all we do. Our unique community is connected under the protection of the tree of life, where all are enabled to grow and flourish in their own surprising ways’

We're a very happy little class that enjoy learning and exploring and asking lots of questions.

We love sharing our experiences, our learning and growing together.

What are we learning this Autumn Term?

Maths: Place Value | Addition and Subtraction | Multiplication and Division | Fractions

English: We are finishing the reading of β€˜The Boy at the Back of the Class’ by Onjali Rauf in our Reading for Pleasure time each afternoon. We didn’t get to finish it last year…sad face! For our English lessons we will start with my favourite poem, β€˜The Highwayman’ by Alfred Noyes, then writing a speech about refugees and finishing the term with β€˜A Christmas Truce’ in WWI.

Science: Forces and Earth and Space.

RE: What influence does believing in God as Trinity have on Christian worldviews?  and How does Hajj show what matters to Muslims in Britain? 

History: Out topic this summer term will be about WWI and researching our local soldiers who gave their lives to save ours. We will also learn more about the Windrush generation through Baroness Floella Benjamin’s experience.

Geography: We will be putting our fieldwork skills to practice in looking at ecosystems and biomes.

PE: Mr Rosser will be teaching PE on Friday afternoons (Tag Rugby and Football) when I have my PPA.

Art: Working in 3 Dimensions: Set Design

DT: Structures: Bridges Mechanisms: Automata Toys 

Music: Melody and Harmony in Music and Christmas Songs 

PSHCE: Me and my Relationships and Rights and Responsibilities

MFL: Me presento Presenting myself Mi familia My family 

Spelling

Spelling Test: Friday 12th September

Please use the grid below to make word sums with your child. They have been introduced to these in the classroom and they have learnt the associated rules, eg, con+fuse+ing=confusing (drop the β€˜e’ and β€˜ing’). I will be giving them a random selection of 10 words that can be made up from these prefixes, suffixes and root words for the spelling tests on Friday.

Homework

Thank you for visiting our Oak Class page 😊

As always, I am hear to listen and help the best way I can.
