We are now washing our hands a lot in school. We have spoken about how to wash our hands properly and do this for at least 20 seconds each time 🙂

Firstly the children line up at the sink, wet their hands and take some soap. They then go to the end of the line and by the time they have reached the sink again, they are ready to rinse and go 🤩

You will find optional Fairtrade homework in your child’s homework folder. This is an opportunity to complete an acrostic poem for an upcoming competition. Fairtrade was discussed today in class. Your poem will be set out as follows;

Good luck 🙂

All children have now had their Education City username and passwords sent home with them (these can be found on homework diaries). If you have paid for home access, you will be able to play games from home. Otherwise, the children will have opportunities to explore the site during our ICT time and during free choice in class 🙂

 

 

Our reindeer jars are finished and ready to be sold at tomorrow’s Fayre. They look fantastic! Santa’s reindeer will love the food inside (and so will the birds 🤫) .

 

 

 

 

 

 

As you will have noticed, the homework diary sheets have changed. As stated on the sheet, homework should be done to suit your family life.

 

 

 

 

 

Your child will be given a Literacy task & a Maths task. At the moment these are in booklet form.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some children will also have been given tricky words to practise. These will eventually be given to all groups.
Mrs O’Donnell and I will ensure your child receives the correct homework task based on their current group. The groups are regularly reviewed and updated based on your child’s learning.

Any questions regarding homework please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Reindeer Jars

Thank you very much for handing in your glass jars. We now have enough for the Christmas Fayre 😊🎄

Homework

I am meeting with the rest of the p1 teachers tomorrow to discuss the current format of homework & parental feedback we have received. Once I have had this meeting, I will add a homework post to the blog to ensure there is a general understanding amongst parents. Your feedback is always very much appreciated.

Communication

We check homework diaries each morning so please continue to write notes if you have any questions or concerns. We look forward to meeting with you at next week’s parents evening to discuss your child’s progress.

Have a great week,

Mrs Stephenson

In the coming weeks we are going to begin our Christmas jars to go on sale at the Christmas Fayre. Please donate any unwanted glass jars you have (with the lid). When dropping children off please send these in with them to be handed straight to either Mrs Stephenson or Mrs O’Donnell (to ensure none are left in bags). We are needing 24 in total.

Thank you,

Mrs Stephenson ☺️

We were called for our flu vaccinations at 9.30 this morning. Everyone was very brave ☺️ The boys and girls are very pleased that we still made it to P.E 👍 Your child will have a note in their homework folder confirming whether they have received the flu vaccination or not. If a child did not have written consent they will not have been vaccinated today.

 

We have made some little coloured pouches for you to keep your numbers safe inside your folder.

Please chop up the numbers and place them inside the pouches.  Thank you!
