We are all looking forward to our school trip. Lots of learning and fun awaits! We would appreciate any payments still to be made for the school trip to be paid for Monday 13th June.
Write these words another twice in your homework jotter. Create a sentence using one or more of our spelling words. If you want to challenge yourself try writing two sentences using our spelling words.
Try growing one or more of our spelling words. For example: launch – launched, launching, launches.
Reading
Reading books will be issued this week. If possible ask your child questions about the book to ensure understanding as well as fluency. What was their favourite part of the story? What they did not like? What they think may happen next?
