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. 

PE lessons will take place on a Monday afternoon, so please ensure that your child has their PE kit in school on this day.

During the Autumn term, Class 4 will also take part in a weekly swimming lesson on Thursday afternoons. Children will need to bring the correct swimming kit with them for these sessions.

On Fridays, 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 journals every day as they may get an opportunity to read to an adult at some point during the week.

At Langwith Bassett Primary Academy, we use 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 help children (and parents!) develop emotional awareness and practical strategies to stay calm, focused, and in control. Please see the presentation below for further information.

The text we will be studying this term in reading lessons is The Midnight Fox by Betsy Byars. Please listen to the links with your child and discuss what is happening in the story.
