Falcons

Welcome to the Falcons class page. I am Miss Harcourt the class teacher and your teaching assistant is the lovely Mrs Gilpin. On a Wednesday the class with be taught by the smashing Mrs Clift.  

Falcons have had a great start to their final year at Knowle, already earning lots of Dojos! Children have got stronger and stronger with children sharing expert knowledge and skills across the year group, with many children 'flying up, up, up and away' in their writing skills! Well done Falcons.

PE sessions

On Monday, Falcon Class will have two PE lessons with Mr Blacker.  The children have been provided with new PE tops and hooded sweatshirts, which they will need to wear to school on their PE day.

Autumn Term Overview

Our topic in the Autumn term was 'The Victorians’.  The children learnt about everyday life and the key changes during this period of history.  The pupils have learnt and written stories about various Victorian ways of life and have deepened their understanding of this era. The pupils were really enthusiastic about this topic and have shown much interest in Victorian way of life and inventions. We all gained a deeper understanding and insight of this era when we ‘stepped back in time’ to Morwellham Quay, where we experienced a day in the life of a Victorian child.

Homework and Home Learning

Homework will be set on Friday and we expect it to be handed in on Wednesday, which gives the children plenty of time to complete it. If children have any queries regarding their homework this gives them Monday and Tuesday to seek help. Children will be working on their times tables by completing their passport sheets, applying their mathematical understanding to Success in SATS tasks, and have a piece of SPaG work. 

Keeping in touch

It's great being able to meet so many of you, as you drop off and collect your children.  You are always welcome to talk to us at the beginning or at the end of the school day, if you have any worries or concerns.
