Oak Class
Class Teacher: Jess Hatch
Welcome to Oak Class one of our Key Stage 2 classes here at Littlegreen Academy.
Autumn 2024
In Oak class we have had a brilliant and busy start to the year!
The class have already been demonstrating our school values. They have been so accepting of each other and we have loved getting to know all the new faces around lower school, making sure to be kind to those that are new to Littlegreen. We have been getting to know each other in the class and learning about how we can be kind and respectful to each other.
In our English lessons, we have been putting our creative skills to the test with artwork, sharing music and acting. Oak class have also been showing amazing courage, getting involved in all the activities that have been offered.
We are fortunate to be doing some boxing training in our PE sessions and have loved learning new skills.
We have started our topic this term by sharing what we know about castles and designing our own. We are looking forward to learning lots more about castles and the people that live in them.
Autumn 2024 (2)
Oak class have had a brilliant Autumn term! This half term, in English we have enjoyed reading about Stitch Head – a story about a forgotten creation and his mission to become memorable.
The class have created their own monster creations and written instructions on how to make them. We have needed a lot of perseverance in maths this half term as we have been putting our times table skills to the test and practicing our measuring skills, but all the pupils have been working hard.
We have been lucky enough to visit Fort Purbrook to have a go at some mountain biking, practicing our balancing skills and even trying out a course.
We have also started to get into the Christmas spirit by making decorations. We have enjoyed the Autumn and are looking forward to the last two weeks of term and all the fun things that we have planned.
Spring 2025
Oak Class have had such a brilliant spring term so far.
We have been working hard on our independent writing this week and have been busy using our ‘All About Me’ boxes as inspiration for our writing. We are now beginning to develop characters and decide which direction our writing is going to go in – Joe is writing an in-depth character profile!
Our weekly trips to Fort Purbrook have been great fun this term and we have really displayed our school values during these trips – facing fears, trying our best and working as a team.
This half term we will be learning about different cultures from around the world and this week we really enjoyed learning all about Japan, even learning to say some Japanese phrases!
As the weather has been better this week, we have loved taking some of our learning outside and particularly enjoyed practicing relaxation techniques in the sunshine during our communication and interaction lesson.
Last week, Brandon took part in Littlegreen’s Got Talent – he stunned the whole school, performing in both lower school and upper school’s assembly, it was amazing!
