Weekly News 29th November 2018

This week we have been learning the sounds b, f and l.

The children have been very busy making shape pictures of people. The children have been using their knowledge of shapes to name the shapes that they need.

We have been doing a thorough sounds, tricky word and blending check with the children this week which has been very encouraging. Please keep practising the sounds and tricky words with your children over the next few weeks so that they do not forget what they have learnt. We will not be reading with the children any more this term to make space for Christmas activities.  We will however, be doing lots of writing which will be drawing on the sounds and tricky word skills that they have been developing.

We have been carrying on with learning about teen numbers. Children can find teen numbers challenging to learn. If you are not sure how to support your child at home with maths, there are some great ideas in the booklet that we gave at the parents information meeting.

Thank you to the parents that have returned the slip about the Christmas Craft Morning. Please do so if you haven’t already as we will need to buy our resources for the morning soon. Please be reassured lots of parents will be taking their children home on that day so please do not order a lunch for your child on that day. If you have already ordered a lunch for your child and you would like to take them home, please ask the office to cancel it for you.

We will be sending your child’s puddle suit home over Christmas. We are finding that some children avoid using our woodland area because they find it difficult to put on their puddle suit. Please practise this with your child at home so that they are confident to use all areas of our reception base.
