I am Miss Morgan, your class teacher and Miss Peterson and Miss Weymouth are our teaching assistants. Mrs Roberts also teaches our class on Thursday and Friday afternoons.
Here you will find lots of information and pictures of the lovely things we have been doing in class.
It will also be updated with class news and links to websites that you may find helpful to support your child's learning.
Home Learning During COVID-19 School Closure
Dear Parents/Carers,
Here you will find some activities and resources to help you with your child’s learning at home.
Each home learning grid consists of 10-15 learning tasks. I would recommend completing one task from each grid per day e.g. choose one Maths, one English and one Curriculum task to make a total of three tasks per day. Each grid should take around two weeks to complete. Some Maths tasks can be repeated as they require you to practice key skills.
Also, below you will find some links to recommended websites to enhance your child’s learning. These are updated regularly.
I hope you find them useful, enjoyable and easy to use. Whilst at home, make sure you have fun but also use this opportunity to learn from home.
Stay safe and take care,
Miss Morgan

Katie Morag
In English, we have been exploring some of the Katie Morag stories by Mairi Hedderwick. We have enjoyed discovering the different characters. We have learnt that Mairi Hedderwick is very good at using her illustrations to add detail to her stories. We looked closely at the story being told through the pictures.
We have written character descriptions, made predictions, and asked lots of questions about the wonderful books in the series. We are making good progress with our writing as we continue to explore the exciting stories about the antics of Katie Morag.
