Hello and happy Sunday! I hope you have all enjoyed your weekend – please see below for this week’s homework and class news.

Spelling: Our sound this week is ‘wh’ as in whale, what, where or why. We will be looking at how to decide whether to use ‘wh’ or w’.

Wordwalls: If your child did not receive their new wordwall last week they will receive it this week. Suggested words have been highlighted but as always, feel free to do more if your child would like. I have been very impressed by how hard pupils are trying to both say and spell their words.

Reading: Reading books will be issued this week. As well as discussing setting, character and plot in class, we are also starting to learn how to answer comprehension questions. If you are able, please ask your child some questions about what is happening in their book.

Maths: Maths bingo homework continues this week. If you would like a coin tree rubbing template, please let me know. Pupils have been showing great interest in learning about money.

Class News:

P.E.: Our P.E. days are Wednesday and Thursday. Pupils should have a full gym kit on these days. It is helpful for those pupils who prefer to wear shirt and tie to have a t-shirt or polo shirt in their gym bag.

Lost Property: We have quite a few items of clothing/footwear in our class lost and found box hunting for a home. Could I please ask that all clothing or sportswear is appropriately labelled with your child’s name and class?  This will ensure items can be returned swiftly.

World Book Day: World Book Day is on Thursday. You may come to school dressed as a book character or in your pyjamas. If you are not dressing up/in your pjs, then please wear your school uniform. As part of WBD, we will be enjoying read and munch with P6G – you are welcome to bring your favourite book and a healthy snack.

Have a great week ahead, and as always, thank you for your help and support.

Miss Cauley
