Foundation Stage:
This week in Foundation Stage we have been learning all about fire. We put out ‘phonic fires’ using spray bottles, created firework masterpieces and discussed Bonfire Night safety.
Year 1:
This week in Year 1, we have been learning about the seasons and focusing on Spring. We have tried hard with our writing and have used ‘and’ to join two sentences together.
We have also learnt about the Christian Creation story and tried putting the events in order.
Year 2:
This week in Year 2, we have started to explore the Arctic and how animals that live there have adapted to their extreme habitat. We can name all the continents and explain the different climates around the world. We can identify features of a non-fiction books and have used these to research facts about the Arctic.
Year 3:
This week in Maths, the children have been adding and subtracting 3-digit and 2-digit numbers using a place value chart. In English, we have started looking at the story ‘Stone Age Boy’ in order to write our own amazing Stone Age stories.
Year 4: Year 5:
Within Maths this week we have looked at statistics by drawing and interpreting line graphs, bar charts and pictograms. In English, we have produced some beautifully illustrated dragon themed poems. We have also completed our David Hockney inspired landscape paintings.
Year 6:
We have begun to study the features of flashback stories in English and tackle fractions in Maths. Through our theme work, we have begun to look at historical side of the Blitz in preparation for using colour to create our own Blitz themed art work. We have also taken the time to create our final Art Week piece.
Key Message for next week:
Next week, Children will take part in Mega Maths Week with the England 2020 challenge with TTRS.
This week in Year 4, the children had fun creating a working circuit during science. They have also enjoyed becoming journalists to write about Howard Carter’s discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb.

Updates to Drop off and Collection procedures
After careful consideration and consultation, we are making the following changes to the drop off and collection procedures:
1. All KS2 children (Y3 to Y6) to be dropped off at gates unless the parent is dropping off other siblings in FS & KS1. With the field gate currently closed, children will be able to access field classrooms (Paddington, Drax, Smeaton, Upton and Cudworth) through the KS2 playground door between 8:30 and 9:00. Staff will be present on access doors to sanitise hands. We have plans in place to have an additional pathway at the back for the school for classroom access. Also, we are in the process of obtaining and installing footpath mesh around the perimeter of the field. Please bear with us as this takes place over the next few weeks.
2. Only 1 adult per family on school site during drop off and collection times.
3. No verbal communication to take place with staff during drop off and collection times. All general enquires please contact the Welcome Desk and for teaching and learning enquires please contact the class teacher through email or request a telephone call. This is extremely important as the virus level rises in the country and we appreciate your support on this matter. We know the local roadworks are causing considerable disruption; please ensure that you give additional time for your journey to school.

Homework
We need your help!
With most children missing some parts of last year due to Covid-19 lockdown, we have some gaps to fill with curriculum content from last year. We need your support by using the DoodleSpell and DoodleMaths programs. These are designed to address gaps in learning and consolidate learning going on in the classroom. Please support your child by keeping in the green in the Doodle programs. We are noticing huge improvements with the children that are using the programs consistently. Please see https://anlabyacreheads.org.uk/homework-4/ for further information.
At Acre Heads, we reward our pupils for their hard work and dedication beyond the classroom. Please see our weekly achievements below.
