Dear Families,

This week we have started our new topic 'Colour'! The children have love reading 'The Colour Monster' and exploring their feelings. The children can confidently name many of their feelings and can match these to a colour. We have talked about things that make them feel certain emotions and how we can tell if someone is feeling sad. Additionally it has been amazing to see how the children have been showing kindness to one another this week, helping each other in the classroom and on the playground. In maths this week we were concentrating on the number 5 and we have learned even more sounds in phonics!

Next week we will be hosting our first 'Come Learn with Me' on Thursday (12/10) from 9.00 - 9.45am. This is an opportunity to join your child in the hall to complete a creative activity. Please speak to a member of staff if you have any questions.

Have a fantastic weekend!

We have learnt the words below this week. Can you ask your child the suggested questions to encourage them to use the words in a sentence?

Practise the sounds we have learnt this week with your child by clicking on the pictures below. The more opportunities they have to see, hear and say the sounds, the more likely they are to stick. The videos will teach you too!

Try out one or both of these activities with your child this weekend. Please send us any photos you take or bring your child's learning into school - we'd love the see them!
