Hello and a very warm welcome to Fox Class! 

Our PE days are Monday and Tuesday so please make sure outdoor PE kit is worn on Tuesdays. 

Homework will be set every Friday and will be due in on Thursdays.

We are very much looking forward to all the learning we have planned this term! Please click on the link below to find out what we are learning.

Our book corner is full of some amazing books  - but here are some extra recommended reads for this term:

• The Egyptian Cinderella by Shirley Climo
• Marcy and the Riddle of the Sphinx by Joe Todd Stanton
• A Mummy ate my Homework by Thiago de Moraes
• The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan
• Meet the Ancient Egyptians by James Davies

Week 3

In music, we have been having fun using the xylophones.  We have used our new ipads to research Egyptian Gods in History.  We also used books and although most of us found using the internet easier to find information, those that had found a relevant book found this the easiest way to retrieve information.

Week 2

We have been introduced to our Talk 4 Writing story this week - Rumpelstiltskin! We have had lots of fun learning the story through actions and we even did a bit of drama to help re-tell the story. On Monday we had indoor PE. We are doing Multiskills this term and have been learning our A,B,C - agility, balance and co-ordination. This week we were focusing on our balance skills! In History, we learnt about mummification and we have mummified pieces of fruit. We will have to wait and see what happens to the fruit!

Week 1

This week we have been learning about Cyberbullying in Computing and what we should do if we are faced with unkind messages or content that makes us feel uncomfortable in anyway when online.  We discussed the ability to block messages, but stressed the importance of speaking to an adult in these situations.
