Class information

For Summer 1, Darwin Class have P.E. on a Friday with Mrs Cunningham and on a Monday with Mr Vitali from Sporting Influence (please note on week 5 we will have PE on Wednesday 21st May) .

Please make sure the children wear their PE kits to school on those days. Earrings must be taken out for PE and long hair tied back, for health and safety reasons. If earrings cannot be removed then an adapted PE session will be implemented for these pupils.

French

The pupils will have a specialist teacher, Madame Heap, teach them French each week. Children are encouraged to practise their learning using Duolingo.

Music & Computing

Music and computing is taught on Tuesday afternoons by specialist teachers from Junior Jam. 

Homework

Although we do not set formal written homework, we expect that children will:

  • Read daily at home, individually and with an adult, and record in their reading diary. Reading daily not only improves their reading ability, but also has a significant impact on their writing ideas and spelling accuracy.
  • Practise the weekly spelling rule. This could be on Spelling Frame and /or with written practice.
  • Practise their mental maths or areas of maths that need reinforcing (Sumdog is a great fun way to do this)
  • Multiplication Times table Check - Times table practise can be found here
