Talk Homework

This week, we started an exciting new book in English called The Fluffy Squishy Itty Bitty. To start off our learning, we had a fantastic experience lesson on Monday with a special visitor: Abbie, a baker from Holtwhites bakery!

Abbie spoke to us about her job and showed us some of the special utensils she uses, like a laminator for making croissants. The children had so many brilliant questions for her. 

Please ask your child to share a few facts they learned from Abbie! 

We also had great fun decorating our own biscuits and tasting some delicious baked goods, including a fresh baguette straight from her bakery.

We also took a short walk to the shops on Lancaster Road, visiting the Co-op, Dallas and a florist. We were on a special mission to see if we could spot any squishy, fluffy, itty bitty items for sale to link back to our new book!

Next week, we will continue with our book, focusing heavily on using fantastic describing words. We are also putting a big focus on our handwriting, encouraging the children to show off their absolute best 'Lavender style writing' in their books. 

Please remember to keep practising handwriting at home, too!
