We began our tests yesterday and all children who took part were fantastic! We also had our second SRE jigsaw lesson which explained the reproductive system, how a sperm and an egg have to join to create a baby and also loving families and responsibilities of looking after a baby.
Unfortunately, during PE, about 90% of the class displayed poor manners and disrespectful behaviour towards our PE teacher. As a result, the majority of the class had to change their cards and were asked to sit in silence reading and reflecting on their behaviour. This is also as a result of a few incidents like this recently to other members of staff. Mr. Treble and myself both explained that we shouldn't have to speak to them about this repeatedly and that this would certainly not be acceptable behaviour in their new schools. I would be grateful if you could support us on this matter by reinforcing acceptable behaviour, choices and consequences and respectful attitudes as well as having their own minds and being able to be assertive not joining in with others!
I am fully aware, having taught year 4 for several years, that this time of year (particularly for those moving on) stirs up a lot of emotion and we discussed previously that we are still at this school and have responsibilities to ALL our classmates, buddies, staff, ourselves and the rest of the school.
It is important that this is addressed so that we can all enjoy the last few weeks of term!
Thank you for your support
