w/c 14.11.22

Following our recent phonic assessments - to check which sounds your child has remembered and has rapid recall of, whether your child can orally blend or can blend to read words - the children will be working in groups for targeted phonics each day. The children move groups on a regular basis to match their phonic ability. Most of the children will not have any new sounds for a while as they will be learning the sound for any gaps they have and working on oral blending and then blending to read words. Please keep practising the sounds that we have already covered at home and re-watch any of the links that we have sent home. 

In Maths we will be following week 7 of the NCETM's Mastering Number programme. We will also be completing several activities on numbers 3, 4 and 5. We will be learning about different ways we represent those numbers e.g. how we write the numerals, how they look on a dice, on the number line, which numicon piece and which number block etc.

Please do let us know if any parents or grandparents would like to come into the classroom to talk to the children about their jobs/ volunteer work etc linked to our People Who Help Us topic. 

In P.E. we will continue work on improving our core strength in our 'Big Moves' sessions and we will be doing some yoga.
