Dear parents,
The children have come back to school refreshed and ready to learn.
Maths: We have practiced subtracting by crossing out and by jumping back on a numberline. We must always remember to put the biggest number at the beginning of the number sentence! Next week we will build on our knowledge of part whole models.
Phonics: We have been learning the ‘oo’ and ‘yoo’ sounds that the split digraph ‘u_e’ makes.
Examples of ‘yoo’ sound words are: cube, mule, tube and huge.
Examples of ‘oo’ sound words are: flute, prune, rude and June.
We have not yet started learning the e_e split digraph sound that is also on your child’s bookmark. We will cover this sound in the early part of next week.
English: We have started to read the book, ‘The Naughty Bus’. We have started to use adjectives in our writing to describe characters.
Next week we will begin to practice our Christmas Nativity!
Please ensure your child always comes into school with a coat now the weather is getting much colder.
We look forward to meeting you next week for parent consultations.
Have a lovely weekend,
Miss Costall
