We are Beech Class, a mixed Reception and Year 1 class. Our teachers are Miss Foley and Ms Caulderbank. We are very lucky to get lots of help from our wonderful Teaching Assistant Miss White and Volunteers in school. In the morning we complete a range of lessons/activities on Reading, Phonics, English, Maths and Handwriting. In the afternoons we are busy with foundation subjects such as Art, Geography, History, PE, Music, DT. We also have our different areas of provision set up with exciting learning opportunities and enhancements for the children.
We are extremely fortunate to have such a wonderful outside space and a beautiful forest school at Richard Durning's School. We often take learning outside which is so much fun.
We have a beautiful reading area in our classroom and we expect the children to read regularly both at home and at school. On a Friday the children will take home a phonics book/ phonics story book to read throughout the week. The books link to their weekly teaching in phonics and covers sounds learnt within the sessions.
Our Week
PE Days are Tuesday and Thursday. The children need to come in a full PE kit, suited to the weather. PE lessons will be taught by West Lancashire Sports Partnership.
Homework
Currently the children have their phonics reading books and flashcards as homework.
Please could all children have a pair of wellies kept in school.
Many Thanks
Miss Foley & Ms Caulderbank
