We had a great time this afternoon at our KS1 disco. We had hot-dogs, sweets and drinks and danced with our friends! Even Mrs Shaw and Mrs Clay joined in the fun! A huge thanks to the Friends of Green Top for organising it for us.

Year 1: Phonics Family Learning
Before half term children brought home a letter about our Phonics Family Learning event. We are excited to welcome you to your child’s phonics lesson to give you an insight on how your child learns phonics in school. The event will take place tomorrow and Thursday. Please see the letter below. If you are unsure which phonics group your child is in please check with your child’s class teacher.
Thank You
Reception -Phonics
This week we have been learning the long vowel digraph ‘ai’
Digraph = 2 letters making one sound.
We have been reading and writing words and sentences containing these sounds. For example,
P-l-ai-n
R-ai-n
S-ai-n-t
qu-ai-n-t
Here is the shared reader we have enjoyed this week

Phonics in Nursery
Today in Nursery we started this terms Phonics, we will be learning two new sounds a week. The sounds will be posted on the blog each week so you are aware of what the children are focusing on. We are so excited to start this phonics journey 😃
Miss Schon’s Phonics Group
Wow, what can I say. We had some amazing progress last term and it was lovely to speak to parents during SLCs who said that they had noticed lots of improvement win their children’s reading and writing skills. Some children made super progress and have now moved on to the next group to continue learning at a faster pace with Miss Rodgers.
We have now finished consolidating our previous sounds and are moving on to the next stage in our learning. We are learning /or/ this week in our phonics session and we are focussing on writing in sentences. In Shared Reading we have some additional challenges to look out for in our Share Reading books and we are taking to this brilliantly! It is so lovely to see how much more fluent the children are becoming with their reading.
