Welcome to Squirrel Class!
Squirrel Class Staff Team
Squirrel class is a mix of Nursery and Reception pupils aged 3-5. We work very closely together to achieve the best outcomes for each and every child, supporting them in all areas of their development in preparation for Key Stage One and beyond.
Homework
Phonics homework is sent out weekly and the children are given new reading books each Friday to take home and read with an adult.
Reading
Here at Green Hammerton Primary we want to encourage a love of reading and strive to ensure that every child can read independently and confidently by the end of Reception. Children are expected to read 5 times a week with an adult at home. Our Reading Rainforest reading reward scheme encourages the children to read as much as they can to receive a their badges, certificates and book marks.
Maths
All children in Reception have a Numbots password and are encouraged to practise their number fluency at home.
Our PE day is currently on a Tuesday. Children are expected to arrive in school in their PE kits. A list of things they will need for PE can be found here.
