White Tigers
Postcard to White Tigers
Dear White Tigers,
We had a super first term and it has been lovely to see you all settle well into our new routines. I hope you had a lovely half term - you certainly had lots of things to share with me on your return.
You have learnt so much already and achieved lots of new things. I am so looking forward to exploring our new units of learning for this term and seeing what amazing things we can find out.

Our Class
The White Tigers class is a mixed Year 3 and Year 4 class. White Tigers consolidate and deepen their knowledge as they begin to draw on prior learning and handle concepts with increasing complexity. Through our curriculum, White Tigers build stronger understanding of the content domains within maths, and genres in English. The White Tigers make increasingly strong connections between the different areas of learning.
- Top 5 things to do in the White Tigers Class:
- Go swimming
- Get quizzing! Use laptops to take the quizzes on your reading books
- Start learning French
- Show your card collections to your friends
- Use the outdoor gym at playtimes
Our Learning
We love learning and will be excited to share more information with you about our new learning and wider curriculum homework after the holiday.
Things to do each week to support your child's learning at home:
Spellings (Year 2 Common Exception Words, Year 3 and 4 word list - link on homework sheet)
Reading: Children are expected to read at least three times a week at home and then quiz in school
Practice times tables
Talking with children about their learning is an important part of creating a love of learning at home. Here are five great questions to start a conversation with a White Tiger this term:
-
-
What is a rainforest, and where are they found?
-
How does the human digestive system work?
-
Why should we try and recycle and reuse things rather than throw them in the bin for landfill?
-
Can you explain to me what ‘body percussion is and make some rain sounds to help me understand this?
-
What is the holy Trinity?
