Oak Class
Welcome to Oak Class 2024-2025
Oak Class is the home of pupils in Year 1 and Year 2 and is always buzzing with interesting activities. We really enjoy outdoor learning and take every opportunity we can to get outside! We love PE and our lessons are taught by sports specialists twice weekly. Our daily maths lessons (we use White Rose, and Classroom Secrets) and phonics and spelling lessons (we use Little Wandle Phonics and Spelling) are in small groups. We do lots of writing, not just in English lessons but in other subjects too. We are enthusiastic researchers in our history and geography lessons. We love singing and we especially enjoy our music lessons with music specialist Mrs Davies. Our classroom has lots of things to help us learn: a class library with comfy cushions; lots of interesting fiction and non-fiction books, dictionaries and atlases; practical resources for maths; a cupboard of iPads and all kinds of art and DT materials. We are a great team who enjoy having fun and learning together!
Teacher: Mrs Wortley
Teaching Assistant: Mrs Thomas
Useful Information
Our P.E days are Monday and Thursday. Please bring your P.E kit to school on Monday and leave it in school for the week as occasionally our PE days may change. On Fridays we have Forest School, please have a change of suitable clothes for the weather (long sleeves and leggings/trousers) and wellies or warm boots. We go to Forest School in all weather (excepting lightning storms or strong winds) so please check the forecast the day before and pack accordingly!
Please see the Parent Curriculum letters outlining our learning for the term in the information sections below. This term's Learning Project is 'Into the Castle'.
