Swifts

Welcome to the Swifts

I hope you all had a good half term. This half term we are swapping the polar regions for Africa looking at what plants and animals can survive in a desert habitat and learning about a little girl called Grace who goes to visit her papa in the Gambia. 

As apart of this unit we are looking a where in the world the children have relatives living. Please could you help them write this in their homework books.

I hope you all saw the picture of the children's polar animals homework in last weeks newsletter. 

Here is the link to the maths the children will be doing this week. We will be doing lessons 6 - 10

Here are the Swifts teachers

In the Swifts there is a chart to celebrate the reading the children do at home. Each time the children get their reading record signed or stamped they can move their token onwards. Five reads in a week and they can get a house point.

Please tick off any homework the children complete on the sheet in their homework book and record the daily reading in the reading records. 

The children will be reminded to change their reading books and take their homework books home but if they forget please feel free to send them back to do it at the end of the day. 

The weeks homework is at the bottom of the weekly timetable and is stuck into the children's homework books and uploaded below along with the knowledge organisers which show what the children will be learning.

The children should bring home their homework books and reading books each day in a book bag. This keeps the reading books in better condition than if they are loose in a rucksack. 

For the Spring term the children will need to wear PE kit on a Monday and Thursday.
