Welcome to the class page for Owl Class. Here you will find all of the exciting and wonderful things that your child will be learning during their time in our class. If you have any questions, please use Class Dojo or speak to a member of our team at drop off/pick up. Owl Class is split into two classrooms - Nest and Flight. Each classroom follows their own curriculum.
Teachers: Mr Kindon, Miss Kingham and Mr Byrne Teaching Assistants: Mrs Clarke, Miss Wilson, Mrs Woods, Mrs Glover, Miss Oakes, Mrs Threadgold, Mrs Winstanley and Miss Hodkinson This half term we are basing all of our learning around our topic 'Amazing Antacrtica'. Our class text is 'Lost and Found' by Oliver Jeffers.
Our writing lessons will focus on the effective use of adjectives and conjunctions. Your child will have a Reading Record and reading book at an appropriate level that they will take home and bring into school each day. Please read with you child and record this in your child's Reading Record.
If your child no longer takes part in our Read Write Inc Phonics scheme, they will take part in our Shared Reading Sessions.
