Hello parents and children,
I am very excited to share with you some of the lovely things we’ve been doing this week.
We had our very first PE lesson and even changed into PE clothes. It was tricky, but we didn’t give up and kept on trying. Have a look yourself:
Please spend some time home practising buttons. They are a great way to keep those little fingers moving, which is perfect for prepping for writing and drawing. Thank you to everyone who has brought PE kits for their child. If you have not brought PE kits in, please can you bring them by next week. Thank you.
Library – We also visited the library for a first time. The children were very excited to borrow a book and take it home. They also have their reading records ready for you to put any notes or comments.
In Little Wandle we’ve learned our first 4 sounds:
I am impressed by how well the children are learning and engaging in different activities. We are also practising writing the new graphemes, using the phrases that go with each one of them.
In your child’s book bag this week you will find a pink folder with some letter formation practise sheets. Please take some time and practise writing them at home. They need to be returned by Thursday for a special home learning class celebration! In the folder you will also find the Autumn 1 list of graphemes.
I also attached the Autumn homework grid.
Junk modelling
The children are very keen on creating different models using junk materials. Any donations of small boxes, egg cartons, toilet paper rolls are much appreciated.
Have a lovely weekend and looking forward seeing you all next week.
Mrs Solakova
