Larch Class

Welcome to Larch Class!

Larch is a Year4/5 class. On this page you will find key information about our class: important timetable information, members of staff and information about what we are learning in class.

The teacher in Larch is Mr Hunt. Mr Clifford, Mrs Kuzmich and Mrs Wallett are LSAs in class.

Reading Superstars

We recognise the importance of children reading regularly. We encourage children to read three times at home to an adult, three times at home to themselves and three times at school to themselves. Children are rewarded for meeting their reading targets.

P.E and Other Activities

P.E is timetabled for Wednesday mornings. Sometimes there may be opportunities to do P.E at other times of the week. It is, therefore, important that P.E kits remain in school throughout the week. On Thursday afternoons, children in our class attend a variety of exciting activities across school: gardening, sewing, art/craft, baking and ICT etc. Some of these activities may require children to bring in additional clothing/footwear and other items into school. Children who have been selected to attend such activities will be given a letter detailing what they will need to bring in to school.

Learning

Autumn

Our topic during the Autumn term was the Greeks. We focused our literacy work upon our class book: Who Let the Gods Out, as well as looking at a selection of Greek Myths. During science lessons, we concentrated on the work of Archimedes and even tried out some of his clever inventions! More details of our learning throughout this year is available to see on our parent forecast. 

Spring 1

During this half term, our topic is 'The States of Matter'. This science based topic will consist of the children being able to carry out a number of investigations and experiments to find answers to their burning questions/hypotheses. The new homework menu (that can also be found on this class page) will also require the children to carry out further, scientific research!
