Welcome to Cedar Class
Year 4 and 5 - Key Stage 2
We are taught by Miss Steed (Monday and Tuesday) and Mrs Oldfield (Wednesday-Friday). We are very lucky to have Miss Moore, Mrs Morrison and Mrs Owen-Stiff assisting us with our learning throughout the school week.
In Cedar Class, we are expected to take a more mature and independent approach towards our learning. These skills are developed throughout the year during a variety of tasks and lessons and provide the key foundations that prepare us for the next stage of our learning.
It is important that all the children are read to and discuss texts with an adult on a regular basis and they should aim to read for at least ten minutes five days a week. We have rewards in place for children who are regular readers. Please make sure you are listening to your child read, as well as ensuring regular Times Table practice at home.
Please continue to support your child with completing their home learning, which is sent home every week and for this half term will have a spelling rules focus, based on our work in class. This is in addition to regular reading and times tables.
This year in the summer term, year 4 has the opportunity to experience a 2-day, 1-night residential at Burwell House, while our year 5's, (along with Year 6) are invited to go on a 2-night residential trip to a specialist outdoor pursuits centre. This represents a fantastic opportunity for our children to develop their resilience and further skills that they may not have even discovered yet.

December 2023 - Cedar love enjoying some quiet library time with Miss Moore on Wednesday mornings.
October - We were very lucky to be visited by Captain Adam Nash from Wattisham air base, to talk to us about how helicopters are used for medical rescue within the army.
"I really liked trying the pilot's helmet on."
"I liked learning about the night vision cameras."

September - In PE we learnt how to work as a team, whilst not being able to communicate using one of the senses. We also tried the activities when not being able to talk or see each other!
September - Cedar's moon art to compliment The Suffolk Philharmonic Orchestra's visit. They played ' Clair de Lune' to the children.
R turned herself into the moon!
