Welcome to Class 2

All of the staff at Denton School are looking forward to welcoming the children back on Monday 8th March.

If your child is feeling a little anxious about returning to school, reading this lovely story about Sammy Sloth might help (see pdf below). 

I can't wait to see you all!

Half Term

You all deserve a well-earned rest over half term!

But if you are looking for something to keep you entertained, try out some of these science-based activities!

Leader in Me.

On a daily basis, the children try to demonstrate our core values within school. As we aim to practise them so often, they become good habits that we can use not only in school but also at home too. 

• Habit 1: Be Proactive (You’re in Charge)
• Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind (Have a Plan)
• Habit 3: Put First Things First (Work First, Then Play)
• Habit 4: Think Win-Win (Everyone Can Win)
• Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood(Listen Before You Talk)
• Habit 6: Synergise (Together Is Better)
• Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw (Balance Feels Best)

Growth Mindset

This year we will be helping the children to develop a Growth Mindset. This aims to increase their resilience, perseverance and independence in their learning. Further information can be found by following the link below.

Homework is given out every Thursday, to be returned by the following Thursday.  It will consist of both English and Maths and will include Mystyle projects as well.

Children will also be tested on their spellings and Times tables on a Thursday.
