As part of our first week back, we took time getting to know our new class author - Kiran Millwood Hargrave. We began reading Julia and the shark and completed various tasks around the book - poetry, art, writing narratives & much more!
Extending our learning:
As part of our commitment to fostering a love of learning, we have set some clear homework expectations. Each week, Maths homework will be assigned on a Monday and is due back by Friday. We also encourage children to play Times Tables Rock Stars (TTRS) three times weekly to boost their skills. Daily reading, either independently or with a parent, is essential for developing literacy. Additionally, spellings will be sent home every Monday, with a test taking place on Friday. The more engaged your child is with home-learning, the greater progress they will make throughout the year. Your support is invaluable to their success!
On Tuesdays, all children partake in PE. Please ensure they wear the correct kit (plain white t-shirt, black shorts or joggers) and trainers. Don’t forget a water bottle!
