Next Thursday, 12th December, is Save the Children – Christmas Jumper Day.
Can you create a poster informing everyone of the date! You could even design your own Christmas jumper on your poster.
Ask your Crew leaders to stick these on the windows facing the playground to remind adults about the day!
To celebrate the end of Non-Fiction November.. Can you make a book review, poster or an informative bookmark about a Non-fiction book of your choice? You could even find a non-fiction book linking to Christmas?
You could even use some of your time to enjoy a non-fiction book with a friend or share one at home.
We would love to see some of your creations displayed in your classroom reading areas!
Any photographs of these being completed will go into a prize draw to win a selection box! – Good Luck!
This week in Phonics we have been covering the following sounds. The sounds will be sent out for the children to be practising to recognise the phoneme, say the phoneme and then write the grapheme.
The children are really starting to learn and retain those sounds but will need support to blend those sounds together. Have a go at the green words and the more they hear those sounds being blended the easier it will become. There is a sentence to read on the bottom of the sheet also. Reading this and also reading the reading books that the children now have will all help to increase and improve the children’s fluency in their reading.
Thanks

Last week was National Geography Awareness Week – Why don’t you take a look on the National Geographic Website. You can even have a go at making your own interactive map.

This week the children have all received a reading book. It is the expectation that the children will read their book at home and this is recorded in the yellow reading record that came in their reading pack. This will support the children in their phonics skills and help to improve their reading fluency.
Books will be changed on a Tuesday and a Friday as long as it is evident in their reading record that they have read the book. If you need any support with anything reading please ask a member of the F2 Team.
Enjoy!
