Puffins 2023 - 2024

Hello and Welcome to Puffins Class!

Our class teacher is Mrs Shimmin and our teaching assistant is Mrs O’Connor.

Puffins class is our school’s very own provision classroom. Our class curriculum is a bespoke curriculum based on each child’s individual needs with lots of practical, hands on learning.

Each morning the children work one-to-one with an adult to complete their phonics and in small groups to do Maths and Writing. Just like the rest of the school, we follow Pathways to Write, Power Maths and Read, Write, Inc.

Our afternoon lessons for this half term are Science, Geography and RE along with PHSE. We also spend at least two afternoons learning in the school garden. We ask that children have their wellies and a change of clothes kept in school to help them to be ready for this.

Please see our weekly timetable below

We end our school days with a story before home time. The story we are reading currently is Roald Dahls ‘The Twits’.

Our PE lessons with Mr Ault are on Wednesday mornings so the children can come to school in their PE kits.

A book will be sent home every day so please encourage your child to read each night and record this in their diary.

After half term, we will be sending spellings home which will be red words based on the current book your child is reading.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
