Another busy week has passed. The children have made some lovely ladybird pebbles which we will be adding to our Minibeast display.
This week I have been updating the children's Big Cat eBook library and it has been pleasing to see the progress the children are making. Many thanks to all of you for support you have given your child at home with their Phonics and reading. Regular reading, little and often, can have a massive impact on your child's progress across all areas of our curriculum. If you have any questions regarding your child's reading or have misplaced their log in details then please email me using earlyyears@downhallprimary.com.
On to our learning for the coming week, we will be:
- Sharing and discussing the story "The Very Busy Spider", which is another story by Eric Carle.
- Reading and ordering instructions to make our own spiders.
- Searching for webs and spiders in our garden and learning how and why spiders make webs.
- Creating some spider fridge magnets and then using them to carry out a science experiment.
- Revisiting the first 4 vowel digraphs (ai/ee/igh/oa) in our Phonics sessions.
- Completing the last 2 patterns in our Start-Bee handwriting sessions.
- Looking at counting patterns in our Mathematics sessions, working with numbers beyond 10.
The children will be having their school photos taken on Thursday 29th April. Children in Pearl Class who have a sibling in school will also have a photo taken with them.
Have a lovely weekend
