Welcome to Oak Class!

Mrs Hanson - Teacher

I am the Oak Class teacher and together with Mrs Shaw we aim to create a stimulating and inviting environment for your children to explore and learn in. 

Welcome to Oak Class! My name is Mrs Hanson and I am the Oak Class Teacher, Mrs Shaw is our Teaching Assistant.

In Oak Class we will be building on the work and learning that your child has already done in lots of interesting and exciting ways. Myself and Mrs Shaw are really looking forward to another fun filled year. Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Good Morning Oak Class!

I hope you've had a relaxing weekend. Once again our zoom meetings will be at 10:30am every day. If I could ask that those of you who are not comfortable on screen pop yourselves on at the beginning or end and just give a quick wave so that myself or Miss Smart can see you. 

I will send the email for next weeks zoom meetings to our google class page.

The Home learning timetable for Oak Class for the week beginning 25.01.21 will be:

Monday: Zoom, Maths work, English work and Art task.

Tuesday: Zoom, Maths work, English work and Science task.

Wednesday: Zoom, Maths work, English work and Geography task.

Thursday: Zoom, Maths work, English work and RE task.

Friday: Zoom , Maths work, English work and Guided reading task.

This is the work each day that will need to be completed and submitted. There are 3 activities that need to be completed each day. These are always a literacy activity, a numeracy activity and another. It will be posted onto both the Google classroom and in to the home learning section further down this page. 

This timetable continues to be provisional and may be subject to change.

Please email me if you need anything at all. I am in school some days with our key worker children so please bare with me if emails are not responded to as quickly as normal.

As always please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any concerns or queries.

A little information about Oak Class

Oak Class drop off time is 8:55am  

Oak Class collection time is 3:20pm  

The children will come and leave school from the entrance next to Willow class and walk around to our classroom door.

We will have a 'Sanitation  Station ' in each room and we will be encouraging your children to wash their hands more regularly.

In order to avoid large groups on the playground breaks and lunchtimes will need to be staggered. Oak's break times are:

Breaktimes: 10.00am - 10.15am and 1:45pm - 2.00pm

Lunch: 12.00pm - 12.30pm outside and 12.30pm - 1.00pm eating lunch.

All of these things will be explained carefully to the children when they come in.

Homework will be sent home on Friday to be returned no later than Tuesday. The activities that we send are designed to support the learning that has been done in class during the week. Your children will need support to complete them.

Spellings will be sent home on Friday for the test the following Friday. 

PE is on Tuesday and Friday. Please can you make sure all items of clothing, especially jumpers, cardigans and coats are named . Then we can return them when they go missing. 

Literacy

In literacy this week we will be continuing the story of Traction Man is Here. Please do not read the whole book. I know how tempting and frustrating this can be for the children but part of what we are learning is to use our imagination and make predictions about what we think might happen next. If the children know already it can make it harder for them to think of alternative possibilities. 

Once again I have added a plan of the weeks lessons. I hope this is helpful as I know that you are not always able to make zoom sessions or if your children are in school you may feel reassured to know what they are doing.
