Mini Beast Celebration Success

Wow! What a way to end such a successful term in school. We are so proud of all our Foundation Children who sang beautifully and paraded their hats in style.

It was so wonderful to see so many families able to join us to celebrate the end of a brilliant learning journey. We are sure you will agree that the standard of their mini beast clay tile masterpieces was exceptional. Their Year 1 books showed how much they have progressed in their writing from the beginning of the year and their fact files were wonderful to read.

At the picnic the children were eager to show you their cakes and biscuits but we are not sure many wanted to share them!

We are so proud of your children and we are sure you are too. image image image image

Supporting your child to reach the end of year expectations.

Literacy

    .

    We are continuing to revise all of the phase 2 and phase 3 sounds taught to date. It would be extremely helpful if you can continue to practise recognition and recall of formation for these at home with your child. Please see attached letter formation sheet.

    Phase 2 sounds: s,a,t,p,I,n,m,d,g,o,c,k,cl,e,u,r,h,b,f/ft,l/ll,ss.

    Phase 3 sounds:
    j,v,w,X,y,z/a,q,u,ch,sh,th,ng,ai,ee,igh,oa,oo,ar,or,ur,ow,oi,
    ear,ure,er.

    We are also practising reading and spelling words this term. Please see attached word sheet.

    We are also at the point in the year when your child should be writing at least one simple sentence to describe a picture/event independently. Please practice activities at home where your child can show you if they are able to do so. If you have any concerns please see one of the FS team.

    Mathematics

We are practising finding one more and one less than any number to twenty, doubling and halving numbers to twenty and solving simple addition and subtraction problems. Please support your child’s mental recall of number facts in order to support this.
