WELCOME TO MAPLE CLASS
Welcome to Maple Class! We are a KS1 class of 11 pupils who have opportunities to learn through a variety of creative ways, with a focus on fun! The children’s learning is supported through a variety of creative, sensory experiences and motivating resources including Attention Autism, sensory stories and Numicon. We promote and support the children’s communication skills, through a total communication approach in the classroom, including the use of Makaton, symbols and objects of reference.
The Maple team are:
- Rebecca (Class Teacher)
- Sharon
- Holly
- Sophie
This half term, our class theme will be ‘Homes and Houses' and our focus text is 'Home' By Carson Ellis.
Our Coastal learners will be provided with opportunities to engage in a range of activities to support their development of skills such as anticipation, participation, communication of preferences, intentional choices and making requests.
Pupils on our Countryside pathway will enjoy developing their skills in communication, social interactions, number, understanding of the world, independence and self-help skills. They will be provided with opportunities to master these skills and transfer them to different contexts through learning centred around our theme ‘Homes and Houses’.
In addition, we have several exciting activities planned across the term, including: light room sessions, outdoor learning, access to the magic carpet as well as educational visits.
Our PE sessions are on Mondays.
Forest School sessions will be on Monday mornings - more information to be provided via PING
Please see our class timetable for more information.
Reading in Maple class involves practising early reading skills through sharing and enjoying stories and books together. This promotes the children’s imagination, their curiosity for the world they live in, supports their communication skills and is great fun! We provide daily opportunities to read within school to nurture a love of reading. Pupils will also participate in daily streamed phonics sessions to support their independent reading.
Thank you for visiting Maple's Class page! In Maple, we enjoy capturing evidence of our learning through Evisense. Please check your child’s page to see what we have been doing, and please share what you get up to at home.
