STAR OF THE WEEK
04/12/20. This week, I am giving the Star of the Week to the whole of Ash class! They have been absolutely fantastic during our 'show off' week and have demonstrated the school values of belief and excellence. They should all be very proud of themselves. Well done, Ash!

New Routines
Ash class will start the day at 8:40 and finish the day at 3:10. You will come into school and leave school using the Ash classroom back door, which is labelled with 'Ash - Mr. Casella'.
All children have been given a reading book to take home. We love reading here at The Pines and it would be fantastic if our children could read at home every day!
PE
Our regular PE lessons are on Monday and Wednesday.
We will do PE outside whenever it is possible. Please can children come to school in their PE kit on PE days.
This Term
In Ash this term, we have been working really hard in all areas of our curriculum! Our maths learning has focussed on place value, before moving on to adding and subtracting numbers up to 3 digits, crossing tens and hundreds.
Writing has allowed us to explore and write our own traditional tale as our fiction focus, moving on to writing an explanation text for non fiction.
We have 2 very exciting books to read this term as our class novels, as well as lots of non fiction pieces to study in whole class reading.
In PE, we will be competing in the Berkshire Virtual School Games, as well as practising team games in our other session.
