Hello everyone,
This week we have started our Phonics and Mathematics sessions. We are very proud of how the children have adapted to these new daily sessions. Don't forget the Phonics workshop is taking place on Friday 3rd at 2.30pm. This is an opportunity to find out about how we teach Phonics at Down Hall. (Please don't worry if you are unable to make it, all information given will be shared).
On to our learning for the coming week, we will be:
- Reading another story about the Ten in the Bed characters, this time they are playing Hide and Seek.
- Continuing our Phonics sessions, learning the next 4 sounds.
- Using our teddy bear puppets that we made last week to play a "Where's the Bear?" game.
- Starting to create our Christmas card design, these will come home when finished for you to see and order (should you decide to).
- Starting our handwriting sessions and learning how to use our special lightboxes.
In two weeks time, we will be looking at how we have changed since being a baby. It would be lovely if the children could either bring in a baby photo OR for 1 to be sent in via ClassDojo for us to print out in school. We will need them by Monday 13th October.
There is no drop in next week due to our Phonics Workshop on Friday.
Miss Wakefield and Mrs Fincham
