PE Days

Our timetabled PE day is Thursday.  Please send your child in PE kit on this day.  

 

Homework 

Reading - Children are sent home with a phonics reading sheet/book daily. We ask that parents and carers practice letter sounds and read regularly (ideally daily) with their children. If you read with your child at home please place a note in your child's reading record so they can be rewarded accordingly.  Children will be provided with a library book each week.  Please ensure your child brings their reading wallet to school each day.  

Phonics - Your child has a daily phonics lesson in school taught using the Read Write Inc phonics scheme. They will have sounds to practise at home. When your child is a ready, a sheet or a book will be sent home every day in their book folder. These need to be returned to school every day in their book folder ready for their phonics lesson. Your child will also have a reading record for you to sign. You should aim to sign your child’s reading record at least 5 times per week so that we know that they have been practising at home. Your child will also choose a library book to share with you at home which will be changed weekly. 

Supporting your child's learning at home:

A weekly newsletter is sent out via SchoolPing each Monday outlining our weekly book, learning and vocabulary.  We encourage parents to use Seesaw to demonstrate home learning.
