Welcome to Class KM!

Welcome to our class page. Here you will find some useful information about our routines and current focuses.

In KM the class teacher is Miss Middlehurst, who is a new addition to Leys Farm. Our teaching assistant is Mrs Herrera who will also be teaching you French on a Monday afternoon. Très excitant! 

PE days are Monday and Tuesday so the children will need to bring their kit on a Monday.

This term we will be focusing on the theme of World War II in our learning. In English we will be power reading Moonlight Hare by Ruth Eastham, which links to our theme.

Our current class book is Percy Jackson and the Lightening Thief by Rick Riordan. This is one of Miss Middlehurst’s favourite books series and KM are loving it so far!

It follows a boy named Percy who unexpectedly finds out he is the son of the Greek God, Poseidon. When he is accused of stealing Zeus’s legendary lightning bolt, Percy sets out on a quest across the United States to reach the gates of the Underworld and prevent a catastrophic war between the gods.

How are we staying safe?

In current times, it is more important than ever that we are staying safe and hygienic at school. Here are some of the measures put in place in KM.

1. All children will regularly wash and sanitise their hands.
2. All tables are cleaned frequently during the day.
3. Miss Middlehurst and Mrs Herrera will wear masks if we approach the children and maintain distance, where possible.
4. All children are provided with an individual cup in class for drinking from. These are sanitised and washed each evening. Bottles are not permitted in the classroom to avoid the spread of germs, however they are permitted to drink during class time using their cups.
5. All reading books are quarantined for 3 days before being cleaned by a member of staff and returned by our class librarians.

These are just some of the things KM are doing to try and avoid any risks. For more information about school wide implementations please contact our reception desk.

Home Learning:

All children in KM should have a username and password for the following websites where they can practice their knowledge at home:

Times Table Rockstars and Maths Shed

Spelling Shed and Spag.com

If they cannot find their password, they can ask Miss Middlehurst or Mrs Herrera to give it to them again.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Miss Middlehurst via email or phone call at the office.
