Good Morning everyone! I can’t believe it’s almost March already!

Here is our homework for the week ahead:

Reading

The children have been issued with their new reading book.

Maths

The children have been issued with an odd and even worksheet to complete. We have been working on number patterns in class and have gotten really good at recognising odd and even numbers. We know that even numbers end in 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8, whereas odd numbers end in 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9.

Spelling

Our sound this week is ‘y ’ for long ‘i’. The spelling words we chose were:

Red Group: cry, try, sky and flying.

Blue Group: python, butterfly, myself and crying.

Our common words this week are:

been, called, who and am.

Tommy the Tree Frog has been given out to a child today and is due back on Wednesday if possible. When he is given out on Wednesday he is due back on a Friday.

Throughout the next two weeks children will be helping to sell Fairtrade products at our Fairtrade tuckshop at playtimes. . As well as selling the products, your child will be able to purchase these too; all items will be £1.

On Tuesday we have a group coming in called Rainbow Turtle to give us a workshop on all things Fairtrade.

On Friday we are having a very special visit from some residents at the Erskine Care home. We will be spending time with them, playing games and singing with them. After our visit we will be having a Fairtrade tea party within the class. As part of our Maths learning in school we have been learning about measure, in particular weight. As a fun optional homework task we kindly ask that you share in your child’s learning at home by baking a Fairtrade item and bringing it to school on Friday for our tea party. This is optional, but would be a lovely experience for the children if it is at all possible.

Thanks
