Shark
Welcome to Shark Class
Welcome to Shark Class! We are a Key Stage Two, Investigator class based in the Primary school. We are a formal learning pathway and are accessing elements of the National Curriculum. We engage with Maths, English, Reading and Phonics as well as our foundation subjects such as Science, My Place in the World, Religion and Worldviews, and Music. We also really enjoy participating in Swimming, Forest School and Food Technology. In our class we are developing our independence skills, we are encouraged to take responsibility for managing our learning resources and for keeping our work environment tidy. In Shark class, we all care for each other and demonstrate the values of respect, care and co-operation daily. We work hard to ensure all members of our class feel safe, happy and special and that we all have a love for learning.

Autumn 2024
Throughout the term, Shark Class has explored learning in fun and creative ways. We’ve loved dressing up, role-playing, and engaging in hands-on activities that make our lessons come to life. Our weekly trips to the local sports centre for swimming lessons are always a highlight, and we’ve enjoyed our Forest School sessions where we’ve learned how to tie knots, build dens, and create festive crafts like wreaths and tree decorations. In Autumn 2, Shark Class have had a busy and exciting term. In English, we’ve explored The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark, focusing on recounts and instructions. In Design Technology, we’ve enjoyed learning cross-stitch and appliqué techniques to create our own cushions. In Science, we’ve been experimenting with forces and movement, using ramps and everyday objects to explore push and pull actions. Maths has focused on measurement and geometry, where we’ve been counting money and practising positional vocabulary. In PSHE, we’ve learned about healthy eating, hygiene, and the importance of sleep. Our history lessons have taken us to the Tudor period, where we’ve investigated Henry VIII and his six wives, enjoying role-play and hands-on activities. In Religion and World-views, we’ve explored the teachings of Jesus and how they inspire kindness. We have had a really fun and enjoyable term and are looking forward to all of the fun which Spring Term will bring!

My Place in the World took us to Australia, where KS2 celebrated Australia Day and met animals with Zoo Lab.
