Room 3 have had a lovely first week back after the October week! Everyone has settled back into our routines beautifully and it’s been wonderful to see how excited the children are to get back to learning together. This week, we introduced two new sounds. The children have been learning to say, write and recognise these sounds in different words. We’ve had lots of fun playing sound games and exploring words that include ‘p’ and ‘n’. It’s been fantastic to see the children becoming more confident in hearing and identifying these sounds in the world around them.

In numeracy, we’ve started learning about addition. The class have been discovering what it means to “add” and we’ve explored different materials to help us understand this, such as cubes. The class have enjoyed working together and sharing their strategies.

Overall, it’s been a busy and exciting week of learning in Room 3 and we’re looking forward to another great week ahead!

Just a note to say if all homework jotters and folders are in school bags on a Tuesday and Wednesday, therefore new homework can be placed into the folder. Additionally, a Christmas art activity has been put in your child’s bag, this is an optional activity. The Parent Council is arranging for the children to draw a Christmas picture which will then be able to be ordered on Christmas cards and many other items. It must be completed and brought back to school by the 5th of November. 

I hope you have a lovely weekend 🙂
