Leopards

Postcard to the Leopards class

Dear Leopards,

I am looking forward to welcoming our new leopards in September. I know some of us may be feeling a little bit nervous but our new year 2’s are very excited to show you the ropes of leopards class. I am sure we are all going to have so much fun together!

I hope you all have a wonderful summer holiday, and I am excited to see everyone’s smiley faces in 6 whole weeks.

From Mrs Gallagher

 

 

Our Class

The Leopards is a mixed Year 1 and Year 2 class. Leopards continue to build on the strong foundation they have acquired in Reception and begin to hone their knowledge and skills as they become increasingly independent learners. Leopards begin to explore the skills and knowledge that our discrete subject curriculum offers and well as become increasingly proficient in reading, writing, maths and phonics.

Top five things to do in Leopards class:

  • Learn how to use the laptops
  • Chance to learn a musical instrument
  • Dance parties at the end of term
  • Opportunity to join the school choir
  • Having your own tray

 

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
  • Reading: Children should read to someone at home at least 3 times a week.
  • Practising number bonds

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 Leopard this term:

Are all families the same? 

Using a map, can you see where we are in the world?

What is a windmill?

Are there seasons when it is more windy?

What is the difference between evergreen and deciduous trees?
