Please keep up the phonics practice, reading and spellings at home. It really impacts on your child's learning within school. Thank you.
Homework –
Spellings – Words of more than one syllable often have an unstressed syllable in which the vowel sound is unclear. Sometimes words can be joined together to form compound words.
(pocket, rabbit, thunder, playground, blackberry)
Talk homework
At home talk about all the parts of a plant you have learnt in Science.
Abacus - The children can access this resource via the website and complete one game as their Mathematics homework. https://www.activelearnprimary.co.uk
The children have their own log in details, these can be found in their reading diaries. The school code is kmm7 in the bottom box.
Reading
Please see the letter regarding reading expectations in the front of your child’s reading diary. Please ensure your child has their reading folder in school every day. The children will bring home a weekly reading for pleasure book, as well as their reading book. This is to share together and promote a love for reading.
Phonics
Practice reading, writing and sound buttons on your real and nonsense words.

During our Global learning lesson, we have used our Art skills to create a woven basket, reusing newspapers and creating a food collage to remind us about hunger around the United Kingdom.
In Mathematics, we have continued Measuring and comparing Mass and enjoyed lots of practical activities.
Within Science, we have learnt about the parts of a plant and labelled our own drawings of a plant.
Within English we have written a letter to Miss Anderson to persuade her that we need more recycling and composting facilities in the school to become even more sustainable.
