Mr Fisher
Welcome to Mr Fisher's Class!
Below is some key information that you might find useful.
Our Autumn Term Topic is
'On This Day ...'
This is a History based topic. During this topic the children will study 'The Great Fire Of London' and more locally 'The Great Burnham Storm' of 1981. We will learn about historic individuals such as Samuel Pepys, Florence Nightingale and Guy Fawkes .
Our science work will focus on materials; naming and describing materials as well as learning about their properties and why they are used for certain jobs.
In Geography we will name and locate the four countries and capital cities of the United Kingdom as well as the seven continents and five oceans of the world.
Homework
This will be handed out on a Friday and is due back in the following Friday at the very latest. Where possible, homework will link to work being covered in class.
Spellings
Spellings are also handed out on a Friday ready for a test the following Friday. Please make sure the children are practising their spellings every week.
Reading Books
I am encouraging the children to change reading books as regularly as possible. Please ensure you record any reading that takes place at home with a simple comment inside the small blue book (Reading Record). Finished books can be placed inside the classroom crate on a daily basis but they will not be changed unless the reading record has been written in. Any books that are taken back in will be quarantined before redistribution.
Over the course of the term I will look to update this class page with all the different things that are going on in Year 1/2.
