Reading Newsletter and more…

Dear Parents,

This week we have visited many classes in the school to look closely at the support our Teaching Assistants provide. We have seen some great interactions and small group sessions taking place.

We have had the opportunity to look closely at English books this week and have read some lovely pieces of writing. In many classes we can see good progress is being made. The book looks have helped us to see the areas we need to focus on. One of these areas is spelling! Please ensure you are practising the spellings given to your child in their homework book. You will have received our Reading newsletter earlier in the week.

You will see that we have a new reward scheme for reading to help encourage your child to read with you at home. Please make sure you are reading with your child/ children each day for a minimum of 15minutes. We have a selection of new reading books across Nursery, Reception, year 1 and 2. Please look after our new books!

This week our reception children enjoyed becoming superhero’s when using our new interactive resource ‘Now Press Play’. Now press play is an immersive, audio resource which engages children in the curriculum through sound, story, and movement. All classes will get the opportunity to use this resource so please ask them at home to tell you all about it! Clickon the image to find out more!

Have a great weekend!
