In the Reading Planners there are a list of practice words for the children to read and write at home.

 

Maths

This week we will begin a new unit called Addition & Subtraction (within 10). This week’s focus is an introduction to parts and wholes, the part-hole model and writing number sentences.  

 

Music

This unit is called Rhyming in Time.  The class will learn to move in time with the beat/pulse, responding to different tempos (speeds), and chant, rap and sing using different voices, following simple cues such as starting together.

 

Tuesday & Thursday - Parents Meetings

Please check your child's planners for the parent evening slip and please go through the office if you would like to make any changes.

  

I hope you have a brilliant week!
