Friendly Firecrests

 Welcome to Friendly Firecrest Class! 

Friendly Firecrest Class is our Year 2/3 class at Chailey St Peter’s. We have a lovely big classroom with lots of resources to support children's learning across the curriculum.  

We are developing our love of reading and the children enjoy sharing their favourite books with each other and having story time at the end of the day. The books children take home are appropriate to their reading level and children have a daily reading record that parents and teachers can write in. 

We love using concrete resources in maths to support children's understanding and have a range of resources including numicon, number lines, bead strings and counters. 

Firecrest Class are a very friendly bunch and are enthusiastic about their learning! 

The adults in the class are Miss Mullins, Mrs Webb, Mrs Catchpole and Mr Sherrington.

Our big question this term is

Explorers and Vikings: Why are they similar?

In Friendly Firecrest class and across the school, we are passionate about supporting children’s well-being through our Jigsaw lessons and the use of our worry boxes, zones of regulation board and feelings board.  

In Years 2 and 3, we use our 'Grow the Code' Grapheme mat to help consolidate our phonics understanding. Children who need extra support for phonics will be part of a Rapid Catch up group following the Little Wandle scheme.

Homework

Homework is given out on a Thursday and will be collected in on a Tuesday.
