Parent Drop-Ins

Good afternoon parents/carers,
We have a slight timetable clash with our parent drop-ins on Wednesday 23rd October.
Each class will be showcasing their PE dance performances at 2.45pm – 3.15pm in the hall so the parent drop-ins will be from 2-2.30pm and 3.30-5.30pm.
Many thanks, Mrs Mavin

Willow Class Home Learning 10.03.23

Here are some ideas for work you can do at home today.  I am sure lots of you will be getting out in the snow, making snowmen, snow angels, snowballs and sledging.  We would love to see snowy day activity photos on Tapestry.
Read Write inc –  
Reception:
If your child has a sound blending book, please practise reading the words – Fred Talk, say the word.
Handwriting – all children in Reception were given a green Set 1 book .  Your child can use this to practise writing out some of the letters, especially the ones in their name.  They can also use a notebook/paper or get a stick and write letters in the snow.
GROUP 1: (Mrs Walker)  – Practise the ‘sh’ sound           Fred Games

GREEN Group (Mrs Allen)  – Practise the sound ‘oy’              Hold a sentence (you will need a paper and pencil)

Year 1: Please check on Tapestry for the sounds your child should be practising

GREEN Group (Mrs Allen)  –      Hold a sentence (you will need a paper and pencil)

ORANGE Group (Mrs Haycocks) Hold a sentence (you will need a paper and pencil)

YELLOW Group (Mrs Law) – Hold a sentence (you will need a paper and pencil)

Read the Book Bag book in your child’s Reading Wallet.

Maths:

Wintery Welly Wednesday session

The children were really excited to visit the Forest School area this afternoon.  Our first session of the New Year and there was snow!  The children enjoyed making snow sculptures, writing and drawing in the snow, using the magnifying glasses to examine the ice/snow in closer detail, baking snow cakes and looking at all the different tread prints/patterns their wellington boots made.

Thank you for all the lovely feedback from last week’s story, we especially enjoyed seeing videos of the children retelling the story.

Access to online reading books update

The Oxford Owl website has changed the login page, the link below is the updated one.

The children in Willow Class are enjoying reading and listening to stories from the Oxford Owl website.  I have set up a Willow Class login for them to access this at home.  The books work alongside our phonics scheme.

You can access some reading books on the Oxford Owl Website: https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/login?active-tab=students
