Mrs Metcalf’s Class

Mrs Metcalfe 

  My name is Mrs Metcalf and I teach in Reception.

  

Reception children enter and leave the school using the KS1 yard and start at 8.45am. We finish our learning at 3.15pm

 

PE days

Our PE day is TBC and we wear black shorts or trousers, a white t-shirt and trainers.
Earrings need to be removed for safety or covered with tape.

Home learning

In Reception we introduce home learning across the year.

Reading is important and we must read for pleasure at least 3 times per week at home with an adult and read our phonics books once a week. Adults need to write about how we read e.g. was there a word we were stuck on, did we read fluently, did we understand the meaning of vocabulary, and could we answer questions about events and characters?

We bring reading books into school every day to help us with our reading.

In the summer term we begin using numbots to support our learning of Maths.

We are given spellings on a Monday which should be practised, and spelling tests are completed the following Monday. Sometimes we may need adult support to help us practise and to test that we have learned our spellings.
