Walk Around the Local Area

On Tuesday 9th October, we will be taking a walk around our local area as part of our Geography curriculum – learning about where we live. Any parents who are able to assist us, we appreciate your support. We will leave at 9:00 am and return by 10:00 am.

Reading Books: All children would have brought a reading book appropriate to their reading ability. Please read with your child and write a comment or sign or draw a smiley. Books will only be changed if this is done by the parent/carer. We value your support as it is   essential to enable your child to practise their skills and make progress. Books will be changed on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

Home work

Your child would have brought home a homework book with two sets of work. A sheet of Maths work, spellings to learn (related to their phonic phase) and words to read and decode (these are non words or alien words to support children’s phonic  skills).

Mathletics homework has also been set according to our Maths learning in class. The log in cards are at the back of your child’s reading records.  Certificates will be handed out weekly in our Year Group Assembly.

Home work need to be returned on Wednesday 10th October
