Homework
Homework-Spring 2
Homework Challenges-You will receive your ‘Spring 2 Homework Sheet’ which will contain activities for you to complete over the next 5 weeks. The class teacher will inform you each week the activity/task to complete for that week. Supporting materials will also be sent home. Please remember to send the teacher a message or photos of the children completing the work and return any competed worksheets for us to share in class. We had so much feedback last half-term that we created a ‘Working Wall’ display board to share all the children’s homework achievements. Please continue to support your child with their homework as we would really like for the children to earn more triangles on their homework pyramids for completed tasks.
Celebrating World Book Day at Home
We would like to take this opportunity to encourage our children to share as many stories as possible with the people they love. This could involve getting grandparents or other family members to share a book with the children or setting aside as a family a reading time. A good time for this is often at bedtime story.
Reading Race
Please continue to share the children’s home-school reading books with them and record every time you read in their reading diary. If the children prefer to read one of their own books, that is great! Please also record this. If you read and record these 3 times per week we can enter your child into the reading race at school.
Sign of the Week and Theralympics
Makaton and gestures are an important part of the children’s communication and language journey. Please continue to watch the sign of the week video on DoJo and practice the sign with your child at home.
Gabby will continue to set (via Dojo) a weekly Theralympics task for you to complete at home.
Homework-Spring 1
Homework Challenges-You will receive your ‘Spring 1 Homework Sheet’ which will contain 7 activities for you to complete over the next 7 weeks. The class teacher will inform you each week the activity/task to complete for that week. Supporting materials will also be sent home. Please remember to send the teacher a message or photos of the children completing the work and return any competed worksheets for us to share in class. We would really like for the children to earn more triangles on their homework pyramids for completed homework.
Shared Reading
We will continue to send home a new ‘reading for pleasure’ book every week with your child.
Please aim to read with your child at least 3 times per week and record every time you read into the reading record books. We keep a tally of this at school and enter the children into the whole school reading race.
If you wish to read a different book at home, that is fine please also record this in their reading records.
Ladybirds came second in the Autumn term reading race-so close!
Please send in your child’s reading wallet daily as we also have shared reading sessions going on throughout the week and need access to the book also.
Sign of the Week
