This week in Room 5 we have been learning lots of new things. We had the Chromebooks on Monday and we explored how to type on a google doc, practicing our spelling of our phonemes for this week which were ‘oy’ for toy, and ‘ai’ for rain. The IPads were also out to get us used to navigating mathletics for some maths tasks, and bug club for reading. This week we focused on Subtraction for numeracy, and learned how to take smaller numbers away from 10, next week we will extend this to 20 and beyond for a challenge. In P.E with Miss Livingstone we are focusing on our balance skills, and navigating different challenges so we used the trim trail to help us practice balancing on different objects. Mrs Sheed took us for outdoor P.E and we learned different skills on the pitch. She also taught us about being kind to animals as part of our  RME focus.

Reminders:

Indoor P.E- Wednesday

Outdoor P.E – Thursday PLEASE bring a waterproof jacket.

Library- We visit the school library every Thursday. Please bring books back for then so children can bring a new one home.

Homework will begin after September Weekend. Homework will be issued via parents portal, the same method as last year. We hope to transition to google classroom at some point, once the children are familiar with using it in class. They will be issued with a poly pocket on Thursday 1st October, which will contain their log in for Bug Club and Mathletics. Tasks for reading and maths will be available every Thursday to fit in with clubs etc. Spelling homework can be completed in any way that you see fit at home, and words will be issued on Parents Portal. I will check homework and upload it on a Thursday.

Our blog next week will be updated on Wednesday, we love looking at all your comments and the children love to share their pictures.

 

Thanks so much.

Miss Livingstone
