Please could you support your child by
listening to them read daily and recording their reading in their Reading
Record. There is an expectation that you will read with your child at least 5
times a week. Every child who does this will receive a raffle ticket towards a
prize draw at the end of each term. They will bring home a phonic decodable
book which they should read at least 3 times before it is changed to build up
fluency, expression and intonation (tone and expression when reading)
Handwriting
The
children will be expected to write in the cursive font and will be continuing
to learn how to join these letters. Please continue to use Letter Join to
practise the font.
Spellings
The
children will also be given spellings to learn each week. The spellings will be
sent home in their Spelling Books on a Friday and should be practised during the week and
returned to school on Thursday. Your support with reading and spelling is very
much appreciated.
Maths
Please
continue to encourage your child to practise counting and writing their numbers
0-100. Also familiarise yourselves with the Key Instant Recall Facts (KIRFs)
which can be found on the school website. Children are assessed termly in maths
using a mixture of formal and informal ‘quizzes’.
PE
PE will
take place on a Monday afternoon with Mrs Hughes and on a Tuesday with Mrs
O'Daly. Please see the PE letter for full information.
Water bottles
Please ensure your child has a named water
bottle with them every day. These will be sent home daily to be cleaned and
refilled with water, as per the school policy.
