Dear Families,<\/p>\n

The children have had a very busy week learning lots of new things!<\/p>\n

Our new topic this term is \u2018Jobs in the Local Community\u2019.\u00a0 On Wednesday, we went on a walk around our local area to see if we could find any local places of work and discussed who might work there.\u00a0 Below are a few pictures of the places we found, maybe you could ask your child what these places are and who might work there, to see if they can remember!<\/p>\n

In Maths we have been concentrating on subtraction from 20 and finding the difference between 2 numbers. \u00a0The children enjoyed playing a game of connect four using their subtraction skills.<\/p>\n

In Literacy, the children were learning new sounds \u2018ai\u2019 and \u2018ay\u2019 and practising spelling words with these sounds in them.\u00a0 We have also been learning about narrative writing and the different parts of a narrative text.\u00a0 Next week the children will be writing their very own piece of narrative text.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, it is the start of Chinese New Year.\u00a0 The children should have arrived home with a red envelope with chocolate coins inside, this is because in China children receive a red envelope with money and sweets inside as part of the Chinese New Year celebrations.\u00a0 They also made Chinese lanterns and practised using chopsticks.<\/p>\n

Our hot chocolate winner this week was Caleb!\u00a0 Caleb has been working very hard in class and her been trying really hard to be kind and helpful to others.\u00a0 Big congratulations Caleb!<\/p>\n
