Welcome to our class page.  We hope you will find it useful and it will let you know what we are currently learning about in school.

Teacher bio:

Hello. I'm Mrs Worn and this is my fourth year teaching at The Pines. I live locally with my husband and two daughters, one who also attends The Pines. As a family we love being outdoors, we spend time going for walks, cycling and to the beach. I am very lucky to own a campervan and enjoy getting away on adventures as often as we can. I have a real passion for reading and love to read out loud to my classes, I really hope that reading is something that the children will embrace this year.

Class Routines:

Our main classroom door is the first door on the right in the courtyard. If children have consent to bring a mobile phone and need it to walk to and from school, they will need to hand it in to the adult greeting them each morning and this will be given back at the end of the school day.

Our regular P.E lessons will be on Monday and Friday afternoons. Children should come to school wearing P.E kit on both of those days.  

Current Learning

This term, our curriculum learning is Trade and Vikings with the aim of answering the big question:  How has trade changed over time and how to we benefit from and influence it? For the full details of this unit, have a look at our Knowledge Organiser below. 

Our class novel is: Cogheart.

At the moment, we are particularly focusing on the following:

English:  We are currently 'Writing to Entertain'.  The children will be working on using appropriate vocabulary choices to describe settings, characters and atmosphere.

Maths:  Children will be starting the year working on place value and securing their understanding of numerals and their value before moving onto the four operations.

Science: We are beginning to build on previous learning about electricity and light.

Geography: We will be understanding how trade impacts different countries and learning about food miles.

PE: Netball and Rugby until half term followed my Dance and Health Related Exercise.
