Curriculum: What are we learning?

To ensure children gain the skills they need to effectively progress through school and the knowledge they need to be successful learners in the future, we have a bespoke Crowmarsh curriculum.

• Curriculum Overviews outlining the learning that will take place each term. can be found here at the bottom of our class page. These can be useful to instigate discussions at home.
• Learning in class will be posted here on our class page & sometimes on Instagram

You can find more information about the subjects we teach on Our Curriculum page of the school website.

We also share some of our wider curriculum events on our website Link

Learning at Home

Children spend only 20% of their waking hours in school. So, your support with learning at home is integral to your child’s success.

Reading

We encourage:

• Reading at home daily, recorded in their reading record. 
• Please make sure your child has their reading book and log in school every day.

Spelling Year 2-6

• From Year 2 upwards, we follow the Babcock Spelling scheme. Age-appropriate spelling list can be found on our class pages

Homework

Year R - 4: At the start of the new term, you will find here on our class page a Homework Grid with a range of tasks/activities. These activities are intended to be done as a family and link to what we are learning in school.

As you complete the home learning, take pictures and/or videos and email them to the class teachers so they can see them and share your achievements.
