Welcome to Team Pine!

I am so excited to be teaching Team Pine this year!  I love teaching all subjects, but my favourites are French and Maths.  During my free time, I am a Rainbows leader, where I love crafts and making a mess!  I also enjoy going to the gym and doing fitness classes such as Zumba, Clubbercise and Yoga.   I also love going to the theatre and reading!

Welcome to Team Pine!

I hope you've all enjoyed your first two weeks back at school!  We have really settled well into life in Year 2 and are working so hard!  In Literacy, we are exploring the book 'Meerkat Mail'  - we have written our own postcards about somewhere we went on holiday, and are currently exploring Sunny's journey.  In Maths, we are developing our understanding of place value in two digit numbers and how to count amounts in different ways.  Our Topic is focusing on Planet Earth, mainly exploring the continents and oceans of our world.

Residential Visit

A letter was sent out for Barnstondale, Wirral  in the Summer Term, which will take place in May 2018.  More information will be sent out nearer the time.  This will be an amazing opportunity for all of the children!

Homework menus have been handed out and stuck in Kingsley Journals!  Remember - the starters must be completed on a weekly basis.  A message will be sent out when MyMaths has been set, although this will generally be on a weekly basis.  After Guided Reading, children will receive a task to complete at home related to the book they have been reading in a group.  Weekly spellings will be given on a Monday, and then these will be tested on a Friday.

MyMaths and Bug Club passwords will be written in the back of your child's Kingsley Journal for reference.

Kingsley Journals

Please ensure this are brought into school daily as this will be the main form of contact between school and home.  In the back of your child's journal, you will find a behaviour chart showing if they have remained on green.  Please also find your child's weekly spellings and weekly guided reading homeworks in their journals.  Please do not use felt pens or biro in your journals!

PE

Please ensure that PE kits are kept in for the whole week.  Trainers will be needed each day for the daily mile.  PE lessons will happen on a Monday and Thursday.
