Things to remember
- Each child needs a pair of trainers or black pumps for PE. Please send in a pair of trainers/pumps that your child can keep in school for the half term.
- Bring a water bottle into school each day filled with fresh water.
- Bring your school book bag with your reading books and reading record inside each day.
Take part in our reading challenge...
Your child will bring home phonics based books and a library book each week. These will be changed weekly. The phonics books practise the sounds and words that the children are learning in their phonics group each week; these should be practised daily at home in order for reading to become effortless for your child. There will also be a library book in your child's book bag; these are to read together and talk about the pictures and events from each story. We ask for the children to complete a book review of their library book. This encourages your child to think about what they enjoyed about a book and to think about sequence of events and characters which supports them to develop as readers in their reading journey.
Children: Don't forget to read at home for 10 minutes every day and ask an adult to sign your reading record in order to take part in the reading challenge. Remember that you will receive a certificate for every 25 reads completed at home!
Adults: Research has proven that reading for 10 minutes every day with your child makes a huge difference in building confidence and fluency in reading. Practise makes perfect!
