Monday 28th March – We will be attending church for our Easter service at 10.30am. There will be a collection taken at the door so the children can take along a donation if they wish.

P1 Handwriting Homework – Handwriting letters for this week are f and s. These will be given as homework on Monday and Wednesday and should be returned to school the next day.

Common Words – This week our words are then and that.  P1s, please complete the homework in the white book for Thursday.  P1s and P2s have now got Common Word Wall 4  in your Common Word Book or your Home/School Book.  These words will be assessed in school, but please use them to practise at home.

Reading – Primary 1 and 2 children will receive a new reading book on Monday and Wednesday. Some children have a new word list in their Home/School Book which will continually be assessed in school, but please use it to help you practise the new reading words at home.

Phonics – This week we are continuing the sounds of ch and focussing on it at the end of words, such as much, pinch and hutch.  This sound is already in the sounds envelope at the front of the pink book and can be used to make words along with the other letter sounds.

P2 spelling homework  – Will be given on Monday and should be completed for Thursday. These new ch words should be practised each night at home, ready for the spelling test on Friday. Please remember to practise the two common words as well as these can often trip the children up.

Maths – We will carry on with our work about coin recognition and addition of money.   Our CLIC sessions will also continue.

Topic – This week we will be learning about Spring lambs and meeting Skippy.  We will also be finishing our Easter stories and crafts.

This term finishes on Friday 1st April at 3.00pm. We are off for 2 weeks holiday and return to school on Monday 18th April.

We hope you all enjoy your Easter holidays.
