Lunch: 12.00pm - 12.30pm eating lunch and 12.30pm - 1.00pm outside.

Homework will be sent home on Friday to be returned no later than Tuesday. The activities that we send are designed to support the learning that has been done in class during the week. Your children will need support to complete them.

Spellings will be sent home on Friday for the test the following Friday. 

PE is on Thursday with coach Leon. Children can wear their PE kit to school on PE days as getting changed can cause lots of lost clothes issues! Please can you make sure all items of clothing, especially jumpers, cardigans and coats are named. 

Reading 

Due to our change to Supersonic Phonic scheme the reading days have now changed. These are the new days in which your child's book will be changed. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to speak to me after school or arrange a meeting through the office. 

Your child's group colour will be written in their book. 

Monday - Green

Tuesday - Pink

Wednesday - Blue

Friday - Whole class book change. 

What we are reading: 

This half term we will be looking at Traction Man in our literacy lessons. We will also be reading a variety of other texts based on children's interests from the class library. From the 27th November we will be reading our new text 'The Emporer's Egg' in Literacy. As a class we are reading Dr.Seuss's Sleep Book for 5/10 minutes at the end of everyday which the children love!

This week has been a fantastic week of maths. We are on a new topic which is place value to 20. The children have loved using ten frames and finding different ways to make teen numbers to 20. Our homework is recognising the matching word to a numeral as well as working out how many tens and ones are in teen numbers.
