A new academic year is upon us again so I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and inform you of the organisation within Class 6.
Your child will receive homework once a fortnight, given on a Monday to be returned by the following Monday. This will usually be an extension to work completed in class. In addition to this, the children will be required to read at home two or three times a week with an adult.
Some of the topics we will be studying this term are:
Language – Personification, Auto/Biographies, Dramatic Events, Newspaper Reports
Maths – Area, Perimeter, Volume, Multiplication, Division, Place Value
Science – Sound and Light
History – WW2
Geography – Pollution around the World
Welsh – Describing people and places, Holidays
RE – Islam
ICT – Video Editing, Searching the Internet
Design and Technology – Designing and Making Rationed Foods, Kitchen Tidies
Art – Pop Art
Regular information/messages and examples of the children’s work will be able to be found on our Class 6 Blog page on our school blog (http://www.ffynnontafpri.blogspot.com).
PE will be on a Wednesday afternoon. The children are expected to be in full kit which includes: white t-shirt, dark short and trainers (if outside). No jewellery is to be worn during PE lessons and long hair must be tied back. If for some reason your child is unable to participate in PE a letter with a valid reason must be provided.
If your child is going to be away from school please could you inform the school by telephone or provide a letter explaining the absence on return to school.
I am looking forward to teaching your child this year; working with them and watching them progress. If you have any worries or queries or if you can offer your support or time in any way don’t hesitate to contact me.
