Monday 5th December

Welcome to our blog.We were every proud of all the children in the Christmas play. I will upload lots of pictures when my laptop gets fixed hopefully. I took lots of the children when we were performing the play.

Last week is the last week we have set homework. We have noticed quite a few children not learning the spellings. These are age related spellings and they are essential that the children know them.

Reading
We cannot stress enough how important it is to read with your child every day. Reading is the key that opens all other doors. It is a life skill that the children rely so much on. We are trying to have a real push on reading and understanding a book. We appreciate the support that you give us.

Assessment and Review week
This week we will be reviewing lots of work and will be giving the children some tests in reading and maths. Year one will be having a phonics test too and a few of year two. All the children will be reviewing previous work. We will be assessing their writing too by looking at the work they produce in their exercise books. We will also be busy testing their reading to see if they can move up a book band.


Christmas fair
The Christmas fair is on after school on Friday and it is another own clothes day. This week the children need to bring in a wrapped present.

Monitoring visit
On Thursday we have an RE monitoring visit by the Archdiocese. Mrs Harding's class will be leading a collective worship in class for our visitor.

RE
This week we will be continuing with the new topic WAITING. We will be thinking about Advent, Advent promises and Mary showed great kindness to Elizabeth when she found out she was going to have a baby. The children will also be learning about the visitation and the message given to Mary by Angel Gabriel.

Have a good week
The 1 / 2 team
