PE
Puffin Class will have their PE lessons on Wednesdays and Fridays. The children will now come into school wearing their PE kits on these days and stay in them all day. Therefore they will not need to keep a PE kit at school. Earrings will need to be removed for PE (staff at school cannot assist with this).
Reading and Spellings
We expect all children to read their Little Wandle Guided Reading book every day. Please sign your child's reading record to show when they have read to you. They will have their reading books changed on Mondays.
On Mondays children will be given a list of 8 spellings to practise at home. These will be words that we have focused on during phonics that week. The following Monday they will have a small test on these spelling words.
On Mondays, children will also be given the opportunity to take out a book of their choice from the school library. Please ensure that they bring these back into school each Monday so they can get a new one.
Below you will find some key documents to help understand your child's learning, including our recommended reading lists.
