Welcome to Cherry Class (Y1 and 2) where we like to be creative, learn lots of new exciting things and have fun together!

TEACHERS: In Cherry Class, Mrs Sarah Smith and Mrs. Sally Clark are our teachers. Mrs Flatt, Mrs. Kathy Smith, Mrs. Frost and Mrs. Cordon teach groups and support us in our lessons too.

ENQUIRY: Our enquiry question for this term in our class is ‘Would You Like to Have Been a Victorian?’

READING: Please hear your child read regularly, 3-4 times a week if possible. When you hear your child read, please write the date, the book title and a short comment in their Monkey booklet. Please bring your Monkey booklet to school every day. We will change books in class if needed on Mondays and Thursdays.

SPELLINGS: Spellings linked to our phonics lessons in school are given out on Fridays and we have an informal written test the following Friday morning. Please set aside a little time to learn spellings and work on patterns every week. Please make sure that your red spelling book is in school on Fridays.

HOMEWORK: Enquiry homework tasks that link to our learning in school will be given out once every half term. We will also recommend games and activities to do online.

WATER: Please bring a named plastic drinking bottle every day.

SNACK: You can bring in healthy snacks like fruit for playtime if you’d like to. School fruit is also available each day.

P.E.: P.E. is on Monday and Wednesday this year. Please come to school in your P.E. kit on these days.

Please make sure ALL items of uniform and your P.E. kit has your name on the label.

Thank you,

Mrs. Clark and Mrs Smith
