Your child has been set homework tasks for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday night.
To keep us all safe, we have decided that all completed worksheets should be kept at home (until further notice).
This week in Literacy, the children will begin the Active Literacy programme. They will be learning two new letter sounds and three common words. The child will be taught their common words in class on a Tuesday. They will be given their new words to put in their tub to take home and practise.I recommend that you practise these sounds and words daily at home with your child to help embed them.
