The class Teaching Assistant is Mrs Horsefield:

A big warm welcome

Class 2's topic for the Autumn Term is Weather and Seasons

The Big Question is: Why does the weather change?

Please click the link below to view the Medium Term Plan. You can also view knowledge organisers containing key information for our science topic 'Plants' and 'Seasonal Changes', helping your child with the key vocabulary will be invaluable.

Please click the file tabs above for information on specific subjects such as phonics and spelling etc

Home Learning:

For those children having to self-isolate for 14 days (as long as you are well enough), please find the tab above named Home Learning 2020-2021, with links to the home learning for while you are away from school. Start at session 1 for English, Maths and PHSE and work your way through. Please visit the phonics link daily! A little each day is best. Please scan (or take a photograph) of completed work and email it to me at hplatt@aston.cheshire.sch.uk at the end of each day.

P.E

Temporary change: children to come to school dressed in their P.E kits on a Thursday

Please can you ensure that your child's P.E kit is in school at the start of every term. It will be sent home at the end of each term to be washed, or before if necessary. Our kit is a white tshirt, black shorts and black pumps, you can also send in black jogging bottoms, outdoor trainers and a jumper if you like for when we manage to do P.E outside.

Reading at Home

It is vitally important to develop strong home school links when your child is learning to read, we want to encourage a real love and passion for reading! On their journey of learning to read children:

will need to practise their phonic sounds, common exception words and keywords from their book/homework each night
will have two home books, one which they can read to you and one which you can read to them

If children are readers they will choose a variety of books.

We will ask all parents/carers to sign their child's reading record with a small comment on their progress.

Homework

Every Friday a homework sheet will be sent home with your child, with the phonics sounds and spelling words we have been working on in class that week to consolidate learning.

There will also be an optional homework on the sheet which is related to the current topic, it could have a Design Technology, History or Geography theme etc

All the homework tasks should be returned by the following Friday.
