Welcome to Hazel classes area of the website. Here you will find all the information you require to support your child in Hazel class this term. Hazel class is our Key Stage one class and consists of Year 1 and Year 2 pupils. Mrs Fletcher teaches from Monday to Wednesday and Mrs Field teaches on Thursday and Friday. The Learning Support Assistants across the week are Miss Webb, Mrs Sands, Mrs Humphey.
Hazel Class will be enjoying Forest School on Wednesday mornings for term 3. Please can they wear their Forest School clothes to school on a Wednesday morning and bring their named school uniform in a clearly named carrier bag, so they can change at the end of the morning. PE is on a Friday but we ask you to leave PE kit in school all week.
Colour band reading books can be changed each day or when required, as soon as your child comes into school in the morning. Phonics Shed books and library books will be changed weekly on a Friday. Please continue to focus on supporting your child with their Phonics Shed book particularly. Please see Mrs Fletcher or Mrs Field if you would like some help supporting your child when practising their phonics or when reading at home.
Please remember that if your child has read aloud to a grown-up at home, three times or more each week, they will be given a raffle ticket in return for their efforts, plus a house point for each day they have read. The raffle is drawn each week during our Pride of Punnetts Town Celebration Assembly and a winner can choose a brand-new book or stationary item to take home! It really does make a difference to their reading fluency if they practice little (or lots!) and often. Please also support your child at home to learn the set of Maths Fluency Flashcards they bring home. Once these are all completed your child will begin their journey in learning the 2, 10, 5 and 3 times tables.
Each week we practice a new spelling rule to help develop our writing skills. Your child will be set a weekly spelling assignment on Ed Shed. Please can they access this game based activity for 10 minutes each week to help embed the current weekly spelling rule.
Hazel Class is full of some very enthusiastic engineers and artists! We welcome any small donations (that would fit in a tray) of craft or collage materials like straws, cake cases, lolly sticks, collage bits, scraps of fabric and wool etc to support their fabulous creations. We are also trying to build up resources in our outdoor learning environment so please let us know if you are able to donate any weatherproof storage or furniture, and toys that can support our learning outdoors.
