Welcome to Pear Tree Class.

Our names are Mrs Sorensen, Mrs Harkin-Perry and Mrs Cutting. We are your child’s teachers and TA for this academic year.

Our theme for the Summer Term is ‘ Where We Live.’

As Geographers we will be looking at maps focusing on our local area and our fantastic town of North Walsham. We will also be thinking about how we travel to school. 

As Historians we will be learning about our local area of North Walsham and how the town has changed over time. We will also explore how times have changed since our parents and grandparents were younger. 

As scientists we will learn about the different parts of plants and what they need to survive

As artists be studying the work of a famous artist - William Morris. He took inspiration from the beautiful natural world around him. We will be sketching plants and then creating repeat patterns using print techniques. 

Alongside our main learning theme, we will be continuing with our Spanish, PSHE, RSHE, online safety, Maths mastery and PE lessons.

Our Mornings will continue with phonics, English and Maths and collective assemblies on Tuesdays and Fridays.

Important information:

Reading books will be changed every Monday. Please ensure reading books and reading records are in your child’s book bag every day.

The expectation for Key Stage 1 is that your child reads four times a week.

You will find homework in Home Learning books. Homework will be given out on a Friday and collected on a Wednesday. Please ensure your child brings their home learning book to school on this day.
