A huge welcome to Starlings class.  We hope you all enjoyed a wonderful summer break and feel refreshed for the new school year ahead. 

Mrs Westland and I are so excited and looking forward to this new exciting year.

This week we will initially be spending time getting to know each other and settling back into school life.

 

Writing

In our writing lessons, we will be making predictions based on our new class text ‘The Storm whale’.  What will our story be about?  Where will it be set?

Look out for us on twitter when we explore the clues left for us.

Maths

Our maths focus this week will be comparing measure.  Who is  taller / shorter?

Which is longer / shorter? Which is heavier / lighter?

 

Reading

Please spend 10 – 20 minutes reading each day. This can be a combination of Read Write Inc and bedtime story books. Please remember the importance of your child listening to YOU read during this time too. 

Read Write Inc 

The children will continue to bring home a Read Write Inc book, a book bag book and a bedtime story each week. This provides them with a variety of familiar, new and challenging texts to read. Bedtime storybooks are to be enjoyed with an adult. Reading TO the children ensures that they experience the magic of a story coming to life and have a purpose and love of reading.

Please check your child’s diary to find out which group they are in, which sounds they have learnt that week and which books they have in their book bag.  Each time they move to a new group they will receive a RWI bookmark.  On this bookmark are the ‘red’ words that are practised in that group.  These words inform our spelling quizzes and regular practice supports fluency and confidence in writing. 

Snack

Children in KS1 receive free fruit.  Children do not have to bring a snack from home but if you wish to do so we ask that it is a healthy option and just one item, please. Please also make sure that your child brings a named water bottle with water in it daily.

 

Uniform

Please make sure your child's uniform is clearly marked with their name.
