Our final week of the module has proved a busy one. As part of our commitment to our central idea, we took action by visiting the local food bank to help support those in need. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the food parcels - your generosity made a meaningful difference to members of our community. 

In maths we've been learning about patterns. Children have had hands on opportunities to explore and create patterns using classroom manipulatives and natural resources in the outside area. Hands on learning has helped deepen the children's understanding of how different patterns work. 

In Phonics we have learnt the sounds ck, e and h. In your child's reading record you will find information to let you know which phonic sounds your child has mastered. These will be clearly highlighted. If they are not highlighted it would be beneficial to practice these sounds at home to support your child with their reading.  We have also been focusing on blending words. To help your child at home you say the sounds slowly c-a-t. Then say them again faster. Can your child hear the word you are saying-cat? You could make this fun by turning it in to a game. 

We hope you have a relaxing half term.
