Last week Miss Salter set a challenge that anyone in F2 and KS1 who brought their reading books into change would enter a prize draw.  This morning we drew out the 6 winning tickets.  Our lucky winners won a ‘twist and tangle’ and a tube of smarties!

Well done Annabel, Letti, Cody, Ferron-Rose, Riley and Pandora!

Watch out for the next challenge in the next few weeks.  Keep reading those books!

Well done to this week’s winners.   There are lots of new prizes to choose from and I know you will enjoy them!  I wonder who will impress the grown ups this week and get to choose something from our wonderful new prizes!

Wonderful Learning!

Look at all the super learning we have been doing in Reception so far! Our teacher’s are very proud of us!

Representing numbers in different ways.

Learning to recognise and order numicon.

Making purposeful marks.

Ordering and retelling the story of the Three Little Pigs.

Sharing stories with our friends.

Learning Letter Sounds

In Reception children learn the names and sounds of the letters of the alphabet. It is important that children pronounce the letter sounds correctly. This ensures children have the best chance to blend sounds together to read words.

Below is an information video that explains the correct and incorrect way to pronounce these sounds.

Below is a video of the Jolly Phonics songs and pictures we use in class to help children to recall these letter sounds.

 

Oxford Owls Website

This website is a great place to access age-appropriate e-books for your child. You will need to fill out a short registration form but this is a free resource. This is great to use if your child is waiting for their school book packs to be changed.

School reading packs are only changed on Tuesdays and Fridays. This is to ensure all children have fair access to the school reading challenge.

Bunting superstars

The children from Class 4 really enjoyed making the bunting that will be displayed throughout Thorne for the bike race that is taking place on Friday 27th September. The children all listened carefully and produced some beautiful ideas.

Well done Class 4

Keep up the hard work
