Our topic this week is Summer. We will be learning about the different seasons and what we can see and do in the Summer. We will learn about the weather in the Summer and how it is different to the other seasons. We will also learn what is good about the sun and how we can keep safe in the sun. Can your child say what clothes are suitable to wear in the sun? What can we do to protect ourselves in the sun?
Our writing just keeps getting better and better! We are working so hard in phonics and this being shown off in their writing and reading. An extra well done for those children who are doing their online work and practising their reading book at home. This really helps in consolidating their learning.
Please continue to read every night at home as this gives your child the best support in helping them to move forward with their phonics. By re-reading the same text it allows your child to build both pace and fluency which will help them become a confident fluent reader. Please also remember to do your ‘Reading wise’ activities as extra phonic practise.

In maths this week we will be learning doubles to 10 and beyond. We will be making doubles butterflies practically, playing doubles games with dominoes, dice, numicon and cubes. We will also be learning doubles facts. Can your child use a dice to throw a number and work out its double?
We have had some lovely weather recently so please can you provide your child with a named sunhat and a water bottle each day. There are still a few children coming to school without a water bottle . Please provide water and not squash. Please can you also apply sun cream to your child before they come to school as we are unable to apply it on them. Many brands do an 8 hour cream which means your child doesn’t need to reapply it in school. Thanks for your support.
On Wednesday 7th June RMT will doing a class assembly. All parents are welcome to attend. On Wednesday 14th June RKM will be doing an assembly.
Have a great week.
