Have a great week!

Listed below is the reading, spelling and maths focus for each group.

Over the next few weeks the children will have an additional home learning task related to WW1. I will post more on the details of this tomorrow, once I’ve spoken to the class about it  🙂

Reading

Strawberries – The Elves and the Shoemakers
Lemons – Have You Got Everything Colin?
Pineapples – Chloe the Chameleon
Grapes – Vroom!

Read over the text to develop confidence and fluency with decoding and tracking words.

Spelling

Red Team
‘ew’ phoneme – drew, flew, chew, grew, threw, blew
Common Words – what, many, soon

Purple Team
‘aw’ phoneme – draw, saw, jaw, hawk, crawl, awful
Common Words – very, fast, there

Yellow Team

Common Words – she, come, from

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
Week 4 of Maths booklet

The children have been given a new subtraction mental maths booklet to encourage fast recall of subtraction number facts.

This can be worked on in the upcoming weeks, one page per week. (As the booklet is copied back to back, the children can hand in their completed sheet every second Friday).
