Homework
This term the children will bring home a maths and grammar study guide for them to use as additional support. They will then also be provided with a maths and a grammar workbook for them to work in. Pages for both maths and grammar will be set on a Monday and will be due back the following Monday for marking.
In addition to this set homework, each week your child should read aloud most days and their reading record books signed. They should also continue to work on learning all their times tables up to 12x12.
Class Routines
PE will take place on a Monday afternoon and Tuesday Morning. Children should come into school in their PE kit on these days. No earrings or watches are allowed. Children need to have a blue PE shirt, blue shorts and/or jogging bottoms, a warm jacket, trainers and socks. On Tuesday they will be doing hockey and they will require shin-pads and a mouth guard for safety. They should bring them in every Tuesday for their session on that day.
As ever, if you require any further information, please come and chat to the class teacher after school or send an email via the school office secretary@st-michaels-school.org
