Class 4 Wise Owls
Welcome to Class 4 - the Wise Owls
Mrs Coles is our teacher and Mrs Lyons is our TA.
During our morning lessons, the children take part in maths, reading skills and English.
In the afternoons, children take part in a range of lessons covering the wider curriculum including science, history, geography, RE, RSHE, music, DT and art.
During the Autumn term, the children will have weekly swimming lessons at The Arc in Clowne on Thursday afternoons. PE lessons take place on a Monday afternoon, so please make sure your child has their PE kit in school on these days.
On Tuesdays, the children have a weekly spelling test based on the words that they have been given to practise at home.
Maths homework will be given out on Tuesdays to be completed by the following Tuesday. Any children who have struggled will be offered support in school.
Children need to bring their reading books and planners every day as they may get an opportunity to read to an adult at some point during the week.
This year, we have introduced the Zones of Regulation to teach students how to identify their emotions, understand how those feelings affect their behaviour, and use tools to manage their reactions in healthy ways. The Zones of Regulation helps children (and parents!) develop emotional awareness and practical strategies to stay calm, focused, and in control. Please see the presentation below for further information.
Year 6 parents - the SATs presentation is included below for you to access at any point during this acdemic year. Also, information from Shirebrook Academy about SEND and Inclusion is also included.
