Your child has been provided with a spelling activities sheet. Each night, they should complete a spelling activity. This can be a combination of written and active tasks throughout the week, to ensure your child has a firm grasp of the weekly phoneme words and common words.

A spelling test and dictation will be done at the end of the week in class to ensure the children are secure before they progress

Maths

This week the children have been given a place value/partitioning worksheet to complete at home and hand in on Friday.

Additionally, we have been revising jigsaw numbers within 10 in class. You could go over this with your child at home. We are also working on reading and writing numbers 0-100, as well as comparing and ordering these numbers.
