Yesterday we visited Grange Library. We got excited about books and couldn’t believe the range of books they had – some were new ones we had never seen before! Lots of children left with piles of books to take home and read.
We have been busy making Mother’s Day cards today!! We hope you like them!
The links below show how we deliver our school curriculum, including how we cover the National Curriculum. Teachers meet together for a planning day each year to review our school curriculum; reflecting on the specific needs of children in the school including barriers to learning and children who are excelling and need an extended curriculum. This ensures that our curriculum is broad and deep and as far as possible personalised to the needs and interests of children in each year groups. Discussions with pupils once learning is underway in a subject also allows them to have input into the direction of some of the learning.
The National Curriculum forms the starting point for our curriculum planning alongside our knowledge of our children. To support planning and ensure curriculum coverage we use the following planning resources:
Mathematics: Broadbent Maths
English: Read Write Inc. phonics and Language and Literacy, The Power of Reading, No nonsense Spelling, No Nonsense Grammar
Computing: icompute
Foundation subjects: Chris Quigley Essentials
RE: Carlisle Diocese RE units
Reception Maths scheme of work

The children at Lindale love to play goodies and baddies which gave us the idea of creating a detective area in the classroom and linking this with some traditional tales such as ‘Goldilocks and the three bears’ and ‘The Gingerbreadman’. The children have been keen to make badges, telephones, walkie talkies, wanted posters, lists of goodies and baddies, clues for finding baddies, maps and much more.
