Please see below for useful information:
Reading
*At present children will not be bringing reading books home from school*
Every child will receive two phonics book, which they will read daily. They also have access to the KS1 library where they can pick a book of their choice. Every child has a yellow reading journal, which should be filled in and signed to show they have read at home. We encourage you to read with your child every night and to ask your child questions about the book.
Each child has been given an Oxford Reading Buddies password where even more reading resources can be found.
Homework
Your child will receive homework on a Friday and we ask for it to be returned by the following Friday, unless stated otherwise. The homework set will usually be a Maths or English skill and spellings that we have been working on in class, to help reinforce your child’s learning.
Spellings
Our spelling tests will be every Friday. New spelling words will be given every Friday with the homework and your child will have all week to practise for the test on the following Friday.
P.E
Our P.E. lessons will take place every Monday and Thursday afternoon. Please ensure your child wears full P.E. kit to school on those days. (plain blue shorts, white t-shirt and pumps). Putting their name in each item will help us greatly if kit is ever misplaced.
Thank you,
