• Accelerated Reading Sceme

Dear all,

Welcome to the Elder Class Pages. We are a small, but enthusiastic, mixed-age class of 17 children comprising of Year 5 and 6.

This term, we are reading 'Wonder' by R J Palacio and 'A Story Like the Wind' by Gill Lewis. 

Other topics we are studying include:

Science - States of Matter, Space

Music- Sing and Play in Different Styles.

Computing - Video Production

Design Technology - Mechanical Systems, pulleys or gears.

History - Why did the Ancient Maya change the way they lived?

R.E - Christmas, How do our celebrations reflect the true meaning of Christmas?

P.E - Hockey and Dance

PSHE - Recognising and Celebrating Differences.

Homework in the Elder Class consists of learning some weekly spellings on EdShed, written Numeracy questions and daily reading for 15 minutes. Homework folders are sent out on a Thursday with our weekly class newsletter, and should be completed and brought back into school by the following Wednesday. Anyone who is struggling to complete their homework is very welcome to join our Homework Club on a Monday night (or Wednesday lunchtime if not completed!)

If you are struggling with any aspect of the work, or have any questions, please get in touch via School Spider or call in to see me after school. 

Many thanks,

Mrs Winn.
