Things to remember:

Attendance - Please ensure your child arrives on time to School everyday! Doors open 8.50am. Any arrivals after this time will need to report to the office. 

If you child is unwell and unable to attend School, please ring the office to notify them or send a message on class dojo. 

Class dojo – Class Dojo is our main form of communication. Please keep an eye this, as important on messages and reminders will be sent out. We also send some wonderful photographs to showcase our learning and show our families all of the fun we have been having.  Please feel free to send me a Dojo message, if you have any questions. We are here to help.

Fruit- Pupils are able to bring a healthy snack to School each day or a piece of fruit can be purchased for 30p or £1.50 per week. 

Water Bottles- Pupils can bring a named water bottle to keep hydrated in class.

Reading books -Reading books should be brought back to School daily. We will try to read as much as possible. It is so important to try to read at home daily - Just 10 minutes everyday will make a great difference!

PE- We will have a PE session every Thursday! Pupils can wear PE kit to School.

Woodland- Our woodland session is a Friday afternoon- Old clothes to be worn to School with a warm/ waterproof coat. Wellies are can be kept in School in a named bag.

Supporting your child's learning at home

Monster Phonics - We use Monster Phonics to teach reading, there is an app that you are able to download that will support your child in learning their letter sounds, diagraphs and trigraphs and how to read at home.

Numeracy – Practise forming, writing and recognising any numbers that your child finds tricky, there are lots of lovely number formation rhymes to help you. Ask your child what they have been learning in maths each week and practise and consolidate these skills at home. Our termly class newsletter will let you know the maths skills that we will be learning each term. 

Reading – Reading a bedtime story to your child every night will help to develop their literacy skills as well as talking to them and questioning them about the story such as: what do you think the book will be about? What do you think will happen next? What was your favourite part/character and why?

If there is anything at all that I can help you with, please do not hesitate to message me on ClassDojo and I will do my best! 

Thank you, 

Miss Jones and the Leeks team
