Welcome back everybody!
We are continuing our project 'The Quest' this half term and will also be learning about the countries that make up the United Kingdom. We be learning about the flags that represent each country, the cities within them and the castles that you can find there.
On Thursday next week it is World Book Day. Please see the note below from Miss Harvey about this:
World Book Day
Thursday 5th March
This year is The National Year of Reading so we will be celebrating World Book Day for the whole day.
Please come in wearing a costume to show your favourite book character. If you do not want to dress up, you can bring your favourite book in or a prop to give us a clue.
Here is a competition you can take part in: https://www.worldbookday.com/competitions/win-a-set-of-both-books-in-the-nora-nightsky-series/
Email publicity@scholastic.co.uk with the header WBD NORA NIGHTSKY explaining why you want to win.
Competition closes: 15 April.
World Book Day tokens will be coming home on Friday
Homework
The Year 2 children have their spellings in their bags.
Year 1 children have sheets to practise in preparation for the phonics screening check. They only need to complete a maximum of one half of the sheet each week so one sheet is ta least two weeks homework. Could you please encourage them to:
- Write the word
- Add the sound buttons (scanning for digraphs, trigraphs or split digraphs - the chidlren know what these are!)
- Blend the word
- Say it
These will be coming home each week. There will be a combination or real and pseudo (alien) words. The children know that an 'alien' word isn't a real one!
Maths - Year 1: CGP book pages 22-23 Number bonds to 20
Year 2: CGP book pages 30-31 Using Times Tables Facts
The children have been learning about these elements of Maths in school tis week.
Thank you for all of your support!
