Junior 4: Mrs Ashton
Welcome to Junior 4! I’m Mrs Ashton, and I am thrilled to be your child’s teacher this year alongside Mrs Reilly, our fantastic teaching assistant. Our class includes children from Years 5 and 6.
We focus on core subjects each morning and foundation subjects in the afternoons. The children will have PE every Tuesday with a West Lancs Sports Partnership coach and a teacher-led session on Thursdays. We also have swimming sessions every Monday morning.
The children have a reading book and a weekly spelling list for home learning. We encourage children to read each night and practice their spelling regularly. We recommend the ‘look, say, cover, write, check’ approach for effective spelling practice. Each week, children will receive a Maths and English homework task to complete, given out on Fridays and returned by the following Tuesday.
To keep you well-informed about our class activities and your child’s progress, we highly recommend checking our ‘See-Saw’ app regularly. The app is where we will share updates, news, and insights into classroom life. Additionally, our weekly newsletter, accessible via the links at the bottom of this page, is another valuable resource for staying updated.
We are excited for a fantastic year of learning in Junior 4 and can’t wait to see your child’s progress.
Kind regards,
Mrs Ashton
