Neptune class

Our Year 3 and 4 class

Miss Stevens, Mrs Green, Mrs Jowett, Mrs Cutting and Mrs Sparks are Neptune’s teaching team.  We are also fortunate to work with PE coaches – Coach Hayley and Coach Ben and Music teacher Mr Connelly.

Welcome back to the summer term! We hope you all had a restful and enjoyable Easter break.

Neptune class warmly welcome two new members of the teaching team.  Miss Stevens, who will be taking over from Mrs Burnett and Mrs Cutting, who will be replacing Miss Cook.

Our topic for both term five and term six is Traders and Raiders! This subject falls under the umbrella of our whole school summer term key concept of Movement and People. We will be learning about the Viking invasions of Britain and how they affected those already living in here (the Anglo-Saxons, previously traders and raiders themselves). Our Key Concept Question is ‘How did trade and invasion influence British history?’

In Science, we will be learning all about plants. We will look at Sir Joseph Banks; a controversial yet important figure in botany, plus we will be exploring the functions of different parts of flowering plants, their life cycles, focusing on pollination, fertilisation and seed dispersal.

Year 4 will soon be taking their MTC test (in the first week of June). You can use this website to get a feel for the speed of reading, recalling and responding. Year 3 can use it too. Always good to get a head start! https://talkingtimestables.uk/y4_ks2_mtc_practice_tests_multiplication_tables_check.php

Homework and spellings will be posted onto Seesaw and children will also receive a paper copy. Children should aim to complete a piece of homework each week and spellings will be tested on a Monday or Tuesday (due to the bank holidays this term).

Please continue to read each night at home with your child; your support with this plays a huge part in your child’s progress. Please record in the reading record book when you hear your child read, we celebrate with children when they read regularly.

Reading Records must come to and from school every day and are checked in school each morning. It is the best way to keep in contact with us so please do use them.  Passwords/logins for: Seesaw, Mathletics and TT Rockstars are stuck into planners. Please check the homework as to when any of these tasks should be completed.

PE continues to be on a Wednesday and Friday this term.  Children should come to school in smart, school PE kits on these days.

We are very grateful to welcome Mr Chapman into Neptune class this term to support COOL time. Children will be participating in some STEM activities.

As the weather warms up, please ensure that your children have water bottles, hats and sun cream with them.

If you need to talk to one of us, we are always happy to catch up.  You can catch us on the gate at pick up, email us (directly or through the office) or post on Seesaw.

Kind wishes,

The Neptune Team
