Hello from Mr Raybould!
Welcome to Rowling Class's webpage. Here you will find all sorts of information about life in our wonderful class.
For the first part of the Autumn term, we're focusing on getting back into school life after such a long time away from full time education. Well being and mindfulness will be at the forefront of our life in the classroom.
Our topic focus is FARMING and we will be looking at Van Gogh landscapes in art, land use in geography (as well as maps and compasses) and life cycles in science.
In English, we're starting off by looking at our place in the world by focusing on Oliver Jeffers' book "Here We Are".
Maths will focus on number, place value, comparing big numbers and the four operations of adding, subtracting, multiplication and division.
PE is on Tuesdays and Thursday - remember to come to school already in PE kit.
You can follow Mr Raybould on Twitter for snippets of what's been happening in class.

Each week, we will look at a new spelling rule (e.g. 'shuhs' words spelt -cious) or a collection of words (e.g. ambitious adjectives).
In class, we will complete activities on those words. Spellings can be practiced in a whole variety of ways which can be found on the icon opposite.
We also use Spelling Shed which can be found at the link above - new weekly spellings will go live at 15:30 on a Friday. Spelling assessments are on Fridays.

Nearly every day, we will practice times tables using a paper based version of Times Tables Rock Stars (link above). The times tables that children practice will be personalised to them based on their progress. Children can practice at home using the web or app based versions.
