Phonics Information
Thank you to all the parents who attented our phonics workshop. Please see the powerpoint and resources below.
In maths this week, we will learn that 2 is made of 1 and 1. We will make our own collection of 2 objects and identify 1 and another 1 within them. We will make our own collections of 3 and say how 3 is composed. We will notice when an arrangement of objects is 3 or not 3.
PSHE
In our PSHE lessons, we will look at the qualities of a friend. We will describe how to make friends and how important friendships are.
Special Box
On a Friday, one child in class will be chosen for our special box. When it is your child’s turn, they will come home with a note to say they have the special box. Please collect five special things that are important to your child and discuss why they are special to them. It could be a teddy they have had since they were a baby, a certificate that they have been awarded or a photo of a family party. Once you have discussed them, please take a photograph and upload it to Class Dojo by the following Thursday.
