From Tam Broadway – Primary Headteacher I hope many of you enjoyed the Diwali celebrations this week and had a festive time with family and friends! Now that the weather has started to turn, I would like to remind you that the children will need their hats and coats increasingly for outdoor play when it is dry but cold. Please make sure that your child comes to school in a plain black coat, ensuring that it is labelled. The uniform policy is on the website under the primary tab. If your child comes to school with an umbrella, we ask that you take it home again with you as we do not have space to store and leave wet umbrellas in the classrooms and the children will not need them whilst they are at school. Thank you for your continued support.
Absences immediately before or after a school holiday If your child is absent before or after a school holiday we must see evidence for the absence. This may be medical evidence if your child is unwell, or evidence of flight delays or circumstances beyond your control. We cannot authorise any absences before or after a holiday without this evidence and you risk being issued with a penalty notice.
Home & Family Week Week Beginning Monday 12th November To promote staff and pupil well-being across the Academy, there will be a ‘Home & Family’ week. There will be no enrichment clubs running during the course of the week however Breakfast and After School Clubs will continue to be available. We ask that you make any payments online using your WisePay account in advance to book your child’s place. 09 November 2018 Primary Newsletter

Home Reading Books Since the start of the academic year, we have been formulating a new assessment of reading ages for all pupils in Years 1 to 4. For Year 1, pupils’ phonics data has been used in order to ascertain their reading age and related Oxford Reading Tree book banding. For Year 2 pupils, data from previous Reading assessments has been used to identify their correct reading age category. We have now finalised this data and will begin to send reading books home with your child. Reading age assessments and book bandings will be reviewed on a termly basis. The next review will take place at the end of December.
This week, the pupils have been provided with their first banded reading book to read over the weekend. It is important that children have the opportunity to read with an adult or older sibling daily in order to practise their fluency and expression. Ms Jeremy has also sent out a letter to accompany the home reading book with suggested activities you can do to support at home.

Ahmed Al Khafaji Day Wednesday 21st November 2018 On Wednesday 21st November, there will be no school for the children as all staff and pupils have a dedicated day to exploring learning of their own choice. This is an annual event held by the school in memory of Ahmed Al-Khafaji, a pupil who in the past attended INA but sadly passed away. Therefore, this is a great opportunity to explore a cultural passport activity. If your child chooses to carry out a cultural passport experience at home, then they will need to record their learning. This can be done in words, diagrams, drawings, photos, PowerPoint presentation, in fact however you wish – the more creative, the better! Help your child to rehearse how they will present their evidence to their class teacher and class, and I look forward to hearing about the wonderful learning that has been taking place outside of school. Your child will also be awarded a special sticker for the learning activity they experience. At Isaac Newton Academy, we believe that cultural activities are a vital part of life and play a very important role in young people's social development. In our continued mission to create an enriching curriculum for all our pupils at Isaac Newton Academy, all children have a Primary Cultural Passport. Our children participate in a range of cultural activities within school time and they record their reflections of their experience in their passport. They also receive special stickers to acknowledge their achievements. Children can also carry out these experiences outside of school time with their family and friends. Within each passport there are a range of cultural activities to complete and they are split into the following four categories:
• Outdoor and nature • Community • Creative • Global

Mathemagical Week During ‘Mathemagical Week’ classes had fun exploring the daily maths around us. We realised that in all of our jobs and daily routines we need great maths skills. Ms Gilley, our chef, uses maths to help her prepare and cook our delicious food everyday. Ms Chaggar and Ms Begum in the office also use their maths skills daily to help make sure we know who has paid for their lunches, trips and check how many children are in school everyday. Here’s a flavour of some of the exciting maths that has been going on! Year 1 pupils have been exploring positions and directions. The children enjoyed giving each other instructions using positional language as well as using directional knowledge to programme Bee Bots. They have also been using the class ‘Mathemagical Station’ to play exciting maths games and solve tricky challenges throughout the week.

A Huge Thank You We have spent a large amount of our fundraising money on buying extra playtime equipment and also developing the mezzanine and MUGA areas that the Year 4 pupils use at lunchtimes. Having the wooden benches on the mezzanine means that we can also use the space as an outdoor classroom area in the summer months. So on behalf of all the children we would like to say a massive thank you!

Exciting learning this week Year 3 and 4 pupils had a very exciting task this week. The school received a letter from Mike Gapes, the MP for the Ilford South region. As part of Parliament week which takes place from 13th November, pupils were asked to write a letter with their suggestions for how the area could be improved. The children identified several potential improvement points including: more green spaces, seat belts on buses and more recycling bins in public areas. Letters will be sent out next week for Mr Gapes to read.

Newton's News Today in Newsletter club, we interviewed members of staff and we asked them all about their experiences at INA. We asked many questions, learned about lots of hidden talents, and we had a really good time! We hope that you enjoy reading our interviews!
Ms Christodoulou What is your job title? I am a ‘Senior Lunchtime Supervisor’ and I have a second job here, which is the ‘After School Coordinator’. What is your favourite part of your job? I like all aspects of my role, but my favourite part is seeing all of the children happy whilst eating and especially when they’re eating a healthy lunch. During after school club, I really enjoy seeing the children playing, relaxing, playing their board games and colouring in. How long have you been a lunchtime supervisor? I have been at INA since it opened, so I am now in my seventh year here. What are your hobbies? My hobbies are: cooking at home, socialising with my family and friends, and I like watching TV and relaxing in the evenings. I also like going away on holiday to hot countries. What have you learned from being in the school? I have learned to use a lot of BRIDGES dispositions. I have learned to be brave and also resourceful. I’ve also learned a lot about empathy and a lot about leadership; which has helped me to improve upon my leadership skills. If you weren’t a lunchtime supervisor, what job would you have? Before I became a lunchtime supervisor, I was a hairdresser and I did that for around 18 years. I still cut and colour my mum and my sister’s hair, as well as some friends sometimes.

Ms Jeremy What is your job title? My job title is ‘Primary English Lead’ which means that I am in charge of English in the primary school. If you had a different job, what would it be? I actually can’t think of anything I’d enjoy doing more than teaching, so if I wasn’t a teacher, I would have another job in a school, or I’d try to work in a school in some way. What would be your advice for the new reception children? My advice for reception children would be to use your ‘bravery’ disposition by trying new things. You’re going to see new foods, meet new people, and you’ll be learning new things, too. So it’s really important to be brave when you’re trying new things all of the time. That way, you can make the most out of your new experiences. What do you do as part of your job role? I teach and I’m also in charge of English. So when I teach, I teach all subjects and I focus on the children’s learning. Amongst that, I also mark books, I go on playground duty, I do assemblies, I plan lessons, and I do assessments to find out how children are progressing. In terms of my other role, I’m responsible for making sure everyone has their reading books. I’m also in charge of making sure everyone is enjoying reading and that they’re learning form their reading. What do you enjoy most about your job? Working with the children is probably my favourite thing ever, so even when I’m on summer holidays, I miss my job! I enjoy working with children so much and the reason for this is that I think pupils in this school are so fantastic and kind, and also really conscientious, and hilarious as well! What are your hobbies outside of school? I love reading; it’s one of my favourite things to do. I also LOVE singing, and I sing all the time! I sing everywhere… on my way to the shops, when I’m having my dinner. You just can’t stop me singing! What year do you want to teach next year? I do not mind which year I teach next. It doesn’t matter whether I’m teaching children in Reception, or Year 5 – I’m sure I’d enjoy teaching any year group! Can you explain the new reading structure that you have implemented within this school? That’s a great question! Basically, in a nutshell (which means in summary), the reading structure now works so that children have one text across the whole class, as opposed to Guided Reading where we used to have different activities in each group. So now, our week gets divided up into: learning about vocabulary, answering literal comprehension questions, answering inference questions, and then at the end of each week, we write an essay which is based on our ‘big question’ of the week.

BRIDGES in the Primary Phase “We build too many walls and not enough bridges.� Isaac Newton BRIDGES are habits of mind or learning characteristics that develop a pupil's character and learning power and enable him/her to grow into a well-rounded individual and resilient learner. There are seven BRIDGES habits that we will be working on, which will rotate on a weekly cycle throughout the year. The BRIDGES habit of the week will always be introduced at the beginning of the week during the Monday assembly and reinforced throughout the week across the curriculum. Each class teacher will award a certificate to a pupil that they feel has demonstrated the BRIDGES focus for the week. Each week we will update you on the BRIDGES habit that will be introduced in the coming week and offer some top tips on how to reinforce the habit at home too. Please also refer to the Primary BRIDGES wheel below.

Resourcefulness
Resourcefulness comprises ten dispositions: Questioning Remembering Imitating
Making Connections Transferring Adaptability
Flexibility Reasoning Scavenging Recycling
At School •
It is important that the pupils are able to use and remember their vast phonics, spelling and vocabulary knowledge and apply this information when beginning to write independently. The children imitate familiar stories and characters they know and apply these to their own stories.
•
As adults we are acutely aware that we model behaviours for the pupils every day during lunchtime when we eat with our knife and fork or not talk when our mouth is full, washing our hands, how we dress and present ourselves, how we speak to each other; knowing that the children will imitate the behaviour they see.
•
As well as being able to read the sounds and words on pages, the pupils now need to be able to question, reason and comprehend the text they read and explain what is happening and explain their ideas.
•
In Maths the children need to apply and transfer their knowledge to different problems and also give reason for the way they have worked out the answers.
•
Every classroom has a recycling bin, which we encourage the children to use, and we also look at how we can use materials around us to incorporate them in pieces of art or other areas of our work before we throw things away.
At Home Encourage your child to use items around the house to create a piece of art or make junk models and re-cycle as many items as possible. Ask questions: What could we use this box for instead of throwing it away? Do you think we could make a car, boat or castle from this large box we have? How can we use some of the things we have around the home and turn them into something more useful? When your child finds reading a word difficult or a maths question challenging, ask them to remember and use the things they do know and apply it to the new word or challenge etc. Ask your child lots of questions when you listening to them read at home – some obvious to find answers but also so more tricky questions eg. Why do you think …? Why did the character …? How do you know…? Encourage your child to use their spelling and vocabulary knowledge to extend the level of interest in their writing. Get them to use familiar story characters, settings or plots to base their own stories upon. Perhaps they could scavenge interesting words from stories they read and create their own ‘interesting word dictionary’ to use whenever they are writing independently at home. Remind your child that it is important to adapt their behaviour according to the occasion or place, as parents you will of course role model how to behave and encourage imitation.
