Reading At Montgomery
Key Stage 2 Reading
At Key stage 2 pupils transfer on to the Accelerated Reader Programme. Accelerated Reader is a computer programme that enables teachers to monitor pupil progress. Your child will pick a book within their ZPD and then take a short quiz when they have completed the book. We have a Teaching Assistant designated to monitoring reading, tracking pupil progress and providing intervention.
You can find more details about the reading provision we provide at KS2 in our Lower KS2 Reading Progression Map and Upper KS2 Reading Provision Map
Writing at Montgomery
At Montgomery we use the ‘Talk4Writing’ approach to teach key writing skills. ‘Talk4Writing’ enables children to read and write independently for a variety of audiences and purposes within different subjects. A key feature is that children internalise the language structures needed to write through 'talking the text', as well as close reading.
You can find further information on the language features taught at each Year Group using the through ‘Talk4Writing’ approach in our
KS1 Writing Progression Map and
KS2 Writing Progression Map.
Physical Education
At Montgomery, every child is given between 2 - 2.5 hours of timetabled curriculum time for PE every week, split into two separate lessons. The PE curriculum is planned and organised by our specialist department, including a qualified PE teacher and Sports Instructor. One lesson per week is delivered by the PE department, while the second lesson is delivered by class teachers with support of the specialists.
We strive to provide a broad and wide ranging curriculum for PE, including a breadth of different physical activities and opportunities to take part in many diverse activities, split into 5 areas:
- Games Activities
