Elder

Welcome to Elder’s Class page.

Summer 1 has gone in a flash! 
It has been a lovely half term filled with lots of fun activities and a super school trip!  
In English we have been focusing on the story of Plop the nervous owl. We have been trying really hard to ensure our sentences have capital letters, full stops and that they make sense. We have thoroughly enjoyed reading and writing about Plops adventures and look forward to creating our own story around Plop.  
In Maths we have been finding fractions of amount. The children have worked hard to remember what the denominator is. We now need to work just as hard to remember how important the numerator is when finding a fraction of an amount.  
In science we have been researching different animals and their habitats. We have discussed the different adaptations the animals may have to be able to survive in their habitat. We used this information to support our learning at Colchester Zoo. Where we were lucky enough to see multiple animals enjoying the sunshine.  
We now look forward to our final half term in Elder class, we cannot wait to see the children continue to flourish whilst following our school rules – being ready, respectful and safe. Showcasing our school values – pride, achievement, resilience and kindness. 

It is going to be a busy and exciting term so here are a few things to remember: 

Please bring in a bottle of water with your name on it to keep hydrated. 
 
PE will be on Tuesday and Friday so please remember your PE kit and make sure all your clothes are named. 
 
Please bring your reading book and reading record every day. Remember to place them in the reading diary basket on top of the bookshelf as you enter the classroom. 
Make sure to come back to check our page for examples of our brilliant work and exciting adventures as the term goes on!
