Robins

Monday 27th November 2023

This week, we continue our rehearsals for the KS1 Nativity, always a really busy and fun time of the year. Have you watched our sneak peek of one of our songs in the gallery below?  Your child should have brought home their ‘script’ (a line or two).  Please continue to read it through with them, so that they begin to remember it. 

 


 

Phonics 

Reception

This week the children will review their sounds and be assessed on both their sounds and tricky words to ensure they are secure. This also allows us to flag up any gaps which we can then tailor intervention sessions for.

 

Year 1

This week the children will review their sounds and be assessed on both their sounds and tricky words to ensure they are secure. This also allows us to flag up any gaps which we can then tailor intervention sessions for.

Could we also remind you

  • that your child should be reading regularly at home in order to consolidate the sounds and words that they have been learning in school during the week, through regular reading, they will also become more fluent readers without having to sound out each word in a sentence.
  • Water bottles should only contain water, not squash, juice or flavoured water.
  • Photos of our weekly learning can be round in Robin's Gallery below.
