Elm
Our teacher is Miss Whitehead. Our teaching assistant is Mrs Want.
We have 25 Children in Elm Class.
Our PE days are generally Wednesday and Friday. PE is taught by Miss Cruickshank.
Please remember to wear your PE kit to school on these days.
Our Commando Joe session is on a Thursday. Please also dress appropriately in sports wear on this day.
Our unit for this term is - Travel and Transport!
We will explore journeys of all kinds, including how people get around now and how they travelled in the past, from a walking around the school to the first trip to the moon. We will learn how to navigate round a map using compass points and use directional language. We will compare a variety of modes of transport through time and think about how this changed life for people. We will also do a traffic survey of our local area and discuss the results.

We all have been involved in a dialogue about the high expectations we have of all pupils. Effective feedback involves a dialogue to identify what has been done well and the next steps to learning. Pupils are regularly given verbal feedback about their work and areas to work on. Where appropriate, we use pink highlighting to identify where we are 'Tickled Pink' that the Success Criteria (expectations set out at the start of the lesson) have been achieved. Green highlighting identifies a next step (Green for Growth). Children are also encouraged to self-edit and correct or improve something using their purple polish pen. For more information, please do ask your child, read our policy which can be found at www.petersfield.cambs.sch.uk or speak to us.
