Please make sure all PE kit (indoor and outdoor) comes into school. If you have earrings you will need to bring in tape to cover your ears, or remove them independently.
Learning at home
Reading- Records need to be handed in on a Monday. For every third time that you read at home, you will earn a sticker for your sticker chart!
We want you to read a range of books – from school, home, library, newspapers, magazines etc…
Homework Homework will be sent out on a Thursday. It will usually be either Maths or English and will be follow up work from our class lessons. Sometimes you may give work related to our topic. We would like the homework to be handed in by the following Tuesday, this gives us time to check it. Remember you can earn another sticker for your chart if you hand your homework in by Tuesday.
Spellings You will have weekly spellings to learn at home. The spellings will be given out on a Thursday for a test the following Thursday. They are a mix of words with a pattern and common exception words.
