Good Morning Rabbits

We are so proud of everything that you continue to achieve in your learning.  Well done!  Just one more week until we are all back in school learning together again.  We can't wait to see you all!

This week, it is World Book Day on Thursday.  Our sponsored reading event will be held throughout this week, so don't forget to download further details and sponsorship forms from the file list below under 'Ready Steady Read'.

There is an option for you to dress as your favourite book character for this day, an exciting 'extreme reading' competition as well as lots of other fun activities for this day.

As always, you can find your learning overview for this week in the file list below.

Have a great week and we'll see you very soon.

Supporting your child's learning at home

 -

Homework

Remember to read at least five times a week and to complete the weekly reading homework task.  Record these on your home reading record sheet.  Reading books should be brought into school each day.  Reading books and home reading record sheets need to be brought into school on Friday, so books can be changed and children can receive their Read 5, Hi 5 sticker for completing their reading homework.

Children will initially be given letter formation sheets to complete as homework.  This will eventually change to spellings.  Please support your child in completing these activities.

-

Your child should also have logins to access the following to support learning:

Purple Mash, Education City and TT Rockstars.

These have a variety of games and activities to support a range of learning opportunities.
