Well what a fabulous few days of sunshine we are having!
We were busy today finding our fastest runners in each house in preparation for Sports Day in June. There were a lot of our boys and girls without a water bottle and although we were able to supply water could we please ensure that our children come to school with a water bottle, especially at this time of year. Also apply a wee bit of sun cream to faces and arms if you know your child’s skin is susceptible to getting a little red in the heat.
Homework this week is on phonics with the additional request to write 3 sentences. Also we have handed out some maths. This is based on dividing by 3 or multiplying by 2. Please encourage your child to use concrete materials such as lego pieces if they get stuck! They can then put these into groups of 2 or 3 and it makes it easier to visualise. Reading is also as normal this week.
In literacy we will be designing a new play park which links in with our outstanding outdoors topic so feel free to have a discussion around the dinner table about what equipment you would include if you could design your own play park and how would you describe the equipment using lots of interesting adjectives!
Let hope this sunshine continues!
Enjoy
Mrs Smith and Mr Gordon
