Welcome back!
We hope that all had a wonderful Christmas and New Years.
This week we will be getting back into routine as quickly as possible.
Reminders:
1A – New Library books will be chosen on Wednesday, if your child returned their old one before Christmas.
1B – New library books will be chosen on Tuesday, if your child returned their old one before Christmas.
Homework
After much discussion with yourselves and the rest of the staff, we have decided to combine the homework days. On Fridays, your child will receive their spellings, reading books, Literacy and Math homework to be completed by the following Friday. Occasionally, we will also ask your child to complete a project/special task. You will be given plenty of notice for this. Thank you for your support.
In Literacy, we are continuing our Narative story writing. This week we are revising settings and descriptions. There is no spelling test this week. Please help your child to practise their sentences for the reading test on Friday. Please continue to read and record any home reading on your child’s Reading Log book. Books should be returned by Thursday of each week ready to be changed and sent home on Friday.
In Math, there is a practise sheet this week on addition. Please return this by Friday. In class, we will be doing revision of concepts taught so far.
In Science we continue with Weather and Seasonal Change, looking more specifically at Precipitation: rain, hail, snow and sleet. We are looking forward to some finger painting of trees in season in Art.
A reminder that there will be no more toys in Show and Tell. We continue with our favorite books and will start with holiday highlights.
