Welcome back everyone! It has been great to see all the children enjoying the sun. Let’s hope it continues. Please make sure everyone has a water bottle in school everyday and a sun hat. Unfortunately, they will still need at least a jumper or cardigan as it can still be quite chilly in the mornings.
This week we have been concentrating on our phonics in preparation for the Phonics Screening Check next week. This will be carried out by myself and is a routine that the children are already familiar with. They may have already told you about ‘Alien’ words, please don’t worry, we still have our feet on the ground and have not had any strange visitors!
In maths, we have been consolidating our addition skills by using a number line to add ones and tens. Next week we will be subtracting. Very soon the children will be learning how to tell the time on an analogue clock. Have you got one at home? Most clocks that we see are digital!
KS1 (Chestnut and Elm) Sport’s Day is on Tuesday 18th June at 10.30am. This has been on the school website since back in September so I hope most of you will be able to make it. Pupils will need to come to school in their PE kit as usual. They do not need a coloured t-shirt if you don’t have one, please do not buy one especially.
Over the half term, our class pumpkin plants have been eaten by slugs. Does anyone have any established pumpkin or courgette plants that they would be willing to donate to our class vegetable patch?
Have a fabulous weekend!
