Class 5 - Mrs S Stout
Welcome to Class 5!
I am so excited for the year ahead and all of the wonderful learning we have in store!
We are a mixed Year 1 and Year 2 class and we will begin each morning with a Sounds-Write phonic lesson, followed by an English and maths lesson. Our English and maths lessons will begin with retreival questions which draw upon prior knowledge and support learning retention. In the afternoons, we will explore the Foundation subjects before ending each day with a story- Class 5 LOVE books!
