Welcome to p2/3 homework page, where you will also find information relating to our class.

Mrs Daisley works from Monday to Wednesday and Mrs Cooney works on Thursday and Friday. Your children will get used to this very soon but let us know if there is anything we can do to help with this transition. We are at the gates at home time if you need to speak to us.

We have PE on a Monday and Friday. Please make sure that the children have their kit on these days, including proper footwear for exercise.Let us know if you don’t have access to a school kit, as we want all children to be comfortable during exercise. Can you make sure that they are not wearing jewellery on these days as this can cause accidents?

We will start homework very soon. Until then, can you work on

• good bedtime routines
• making sure they have a good breakfast to help them stay alert
• helping them to become more independent in getting their uniforms on and off?

For the next 4 weeks, our focus in Literacy will be on revision of phonemes and common words, introducing new reading books and building up our good listening. In Numeracy , we will be revising add and subtract as well as place value. Our new topic is Katie Morag.

We will be working  on establishing good routines, such as

• looking after resources
• working with a partner or a group
• listening well
• being kind and polite to others
• turn taking.

We ask you to help us with these by practising them at home.

We are really looking forward to getting to know your children and finding out all of the talents that they possess. We are sure we will all have a super year ahead!
