Class Information and Homework

PE Lessons

Our P.E. lessons are on a Tuesday and Thursday.

Please make sure your child has their P.E. kit in school and it is named.

Phonics

We teach phonics daily using Little Wandle Letters and Sounds. Every day, the children will have a range of opportunities to practise the sounds in school. These will also be sent home.

Reading

At Catchgate Primary School, we aim to foster a love of reading and to increase exposure to different types of texts. Through regular reading, we aim to practise the new sounds which are taught daily in phonics, and to apply this to their reading. 

There are also 'real' books for children to explore in different areas of the classroom and we re-read our core collection over and over so that we can become confident story-tellers!

Maths

Children are encouraged to use Numbots online programme at home with a weekly target of around 10 minutes, 5 times per week, to build speed, accuracy and confidence.
