Our new phonemes and spelling words for the next 2 weeks are:

d and e

as, he , did

Please practise these and use some of the suggestions on the above tab to help with ideas.  Also use the list of words to help your child to read and to write the spelling words.

We will continue with 2 reading books each week and we are now on the red reading level.  The tab on ‘reading’  displays the types of reading behaviours we will be looking for, please take a moment to read over these.

In order for me to keep tabs on the reading books (50 in a week!) the children are asked to place their reading books into their trays each morning in order that I can quickly check for any books which have been forgotten or left in bags.   I am grateful for your help in sending books into school each day and appreciate that at times they will be left at home.   Unfortunately, books do get left in bags and are in school ( unknown to me and despite being asked) and so a  blue form will be issued.  Blue forms enable me to keep track of where books are.

Class Hamper

As you would have seen in the recent letter, Room 1 are the ‘chocolate hamper’  please send in any chocolate items for the hamper into class with your child.

Library Visits

Mondays will usually be Room 1’s time for visiting the school library.  Unfortunately there was not enough time today for this to happen, so our first visit will be on Monday 25th November.  Your child will need their book bag or £1 (if it is lost) to keep the book in.

Many thanks for your support
