Blackbird Class
Welcome to Blackbird Class!
Happy New Year!
I am sorry that we are not in class together at the moment, but I am looking forward to seeing you all again soon.
Home Learning activities for the time we are away are available here.
This term, our topic is 'Tremors' which is about volcanoes and earthquakes. We will find out why and where they happen and think about how affected countries try to protect themselves against them. As part of the accompanying Science topic, we will be learning about rocks, their properties and how they are formed. In R.E., we will be learning about the Holy Trinity.
As well as the Home Learning activities, your child has logins for Times Tables Rockstars and Prodigy, which are websites that can be accessed from the links on this page and can help improve your child's times tables and Maths skills. Also listed are some other websites that can help with times tables practice, as well as some links to other sites related to our curriculum.
When we return to school, there will still be staggered drop-off and pick-up times. For Year 3, these are:
Drop-off at the school gate: 8:45 - 9.00am
Pick-up at the school gate: 2:45 - 3:00pm
If your child has siblings in Years 4, 5 or 6, you may collect all the children between 3:00 and 3:15pm.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to get in touch by sending me a message on Class Dojo, or phoning or emailing the office.
Best wishes for 2021!
Miss Mayes
