Welcome

Welcome to Omega. We are a Year 5/6 class of 7 boys and 3 girls,  most of whom will be completing SATs in May. Our class teachers are Mrs Gorman and Mr Darkins. We are very lucky to be supported in class every day by Mr Growney/Ms Jones and Mr Jenkins, they lead our interventions and helps us to become the best learners that we can be.

Homework

Homework will be given out at the start of every half term. Pupils and parents are encouraged to work together to complete at least one task each week and return it to school.

It is also very important that we read at home with our parents and carers 3 times a week to help us make as much progress as possible.
Please make sure all of our reading is recorded in our reading records every time we read - our teachers love to hear how well we are doing at home!

Take a look at the creative homework activity sheet below to pick which activity you want to complete this week.

Intervention

All pupils receive intervention which is based on an individualised learning plan to support them with their additional needs and to ensure they continue to make good progress. As a school we use Read Write Inc. to support early reading and writing. This is a multi-sensory approach that has proven very successful. Pupils also complete sensory circuits throughout the day to help them self-regulate and be ready to learn.

Phone Calls Home

Positive phone calls home will be made every fortnight. In the meantime if you have any questions please either contact the school office or one of your child's class teachers on the emails above.
