Rabbit Class homework due in Monday 10th December

Homework for the next fortnight is based on our Thomas Telford Topic and continues the learning from our great trip to Pontcysyllte Aqueduct!

The children can have a go at designing their own bridge structure or aqueduct and using their design can construct it from whatever materials you have at home!

They may want to make it out of Lego blocks and take a picture to stick in their homework books with a description of how it was made or if you are feeling more adventurous you may want to make a bridge out of wood or cardboard and other materials to bring into class or take a picture of!

 

Any problems please feel free to ask,

Thanks Miss Morris.

Hedgehog spellings – Year 1

Children in Year 1 will have two groups of words to learn at home each week.

The first set of words are every day ‘common words’ that are tricky to spell, such as said, went and was.

The second set of words are those that the children have been learning in class that week, and will have a common spelling pattern e.g words that end in ss (miss, hiss, mass etc).

Children will have an informal ‘test’ on a Thursday of the previous weeks spellings and bring new words home on a Friday.

If you have any questions, please ask Mrs Johnson.

Thank you.

Hedgehogs spellings – Reception

Children in Reception are using the letter sounds they have learned in their spellings.

At home, children should be practicing reading, saying and writing these sounds, and making two and three letter words with them, spelling by ‘sounding out’.

For example children have been learning the sounds s, a, t, i and n, and so could make the words sat, in & at.

Every week, new letter sounds will be sent home to add to those already known.

Children will also have four or five common words to learn to spell at home each week too.

If you have any questions, please ask Mrs Johnson.

Thank you.
