Learning Letters
Spelling Folders
Spelling folders will be sent home every Thursday. The spellings should be learnt at home throughout the week for the test on the following Friday. A copy of the year's spellings have been sent home with the children and can also be found below on this page.
Spelling folders will need to be handed back in every Thursday, so new words can be added for the following week. (Hand in Thursday – back out the same Thursday). Our weekly spelling test will take place every Friday.
P.E.
P.E. in the Autumn Term is on a Monday and Tuesday, please make sure that your child's full indoor and outdoor PE kit is in school at all times. Could you please ensure that your child's name is written on pieces of kit. Thank you.
Snack
Children may bring a piece of fruit for morning break time.
Water Bottles
Your child has been provided with a school water bottle to be used in class. The children have access to their bottles and are able to refill throughout the day if required. All water bottles will receive a deep clean once a week.
KIRF'S (KEY INSTANT RECALL FACTS)
KIRF’s are designed to support the development of the mental skills that underpin much of the maths work we complete in school. They are particularly useful when calculating, be it adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing.
Reading Books
Reading books can be changed daily, but only if an adult has signed to say that their child has read and has finished their reading book. House points will be rewarded when a book has been completed. We have a weekly timetabled session in the school library where children can select a book to read in class.
When the children need to change their book, they can place it in the book changing box in class, or notify an adult. We strongly encourage you to read with your child at every opportunity.
