Homework 1.1.2.23- 8.12.23

 

Sorry for the delay in putting this on the website but we have had very little internet access.

 

Maths

We would like you to go on a 'Shape Hunt' with your child, encourage them to look for corners on shapes, edges and whether these edges are straight or curved.  The children might be able to name some of the shapes they see.  This can be done when you are at home or when you are out and about.  

 

Computing

Inside your child's reading record you will see a login for Purple Mash.  Please can you encourage your child to login to this website and spend some time exploring the huge variety of games and activities that are on there. 

Homework 24.11.23 - 1.12.23

 

Maths

Please complete the next 2 pages of your Maths CGP book.  Please only complete these pages. These books should continue to be kept in your child's homework file to be monitored.  Grown ups encourage your child to complete the work independently where they can.  They may need help reading the questions and you can check and mark them together to see where they may need to edit their work.  These books are revision books and will allow them to practice their mathematical skills. Any questions or concerns please ask or email.  PLEASE CHECK and MARK your child's Maths Homework Book - we will be monitoring, but would like you to mark it with them. Thank you for your continued support.

 

Science

The Science homework we have seen was wonderful, we were so pleased to see the children's drawings and labels.  We are going to repeat this task.  Please encourage your child to do this independently this time based on an animal from a different group. 

Using paper from home please draw and colour a picture of another animal.  Next to this animal your child should write the name of the animal, any body parts they can label on this animal, which animal group it is part of (mammal, reptile, amphibian, bird, insect, fish) and whether it is a herbivore, carnivore or ominvore.  The children have been looking at this in Science so it should be a revision exercise.  Please put this picture in your child's homework bag with the Maths book so we can look at it.

Reading

Please continue reading the books in your child's bag.  They are also available online on Oxford Owl.

 

 

Welcome Back!

Week 1

New reading books have been added to Oxford Owl.  

We have been practising writing our numbers correctly.  Please continue writing them at home with the correct orientation.  You can use paper and pencil, a stick in sand, writing in the air, make them out of play dough, etc.

We have also been learning our number bonds to 10 (two numbers which make a total of 10).  Have a go at making number bonds to 10 using practical objects, e.g. spoons and forks, pens and pencils, two different  types of toys.

Extra challenge:  write out the number sentence....4 + 6 = 10

 

Week 7 

Goldfinch will start their outdoor learning sessions on Tuesday 17th October. Please dress in comfortable/old clothes with a waterproof. Please send wellies in a bag on this day to change into for the session.

 

Thank you for support with reading.  Your child's book on Oxford Owl has been changed.  Please keep up with the reading!

 

Week 6 - please remember to bring your photo of a grandparent into school ready for our art lesson.  Please continue to read regularly at home.  Books are changed twice weekly and the Read Write Inc. text is available on Oxford Owl (also changed weekly)

Homework from 29.9.23- 5.10.23

 

On Thursday 5 October 2023 marks National Poetry Day and we are going to celebrate this at school with poetry performances from each class across school.  

 

Art

Please can each child bring into school a photograph of one of their Grandparents (ideally of just their face).  They will need this for Art on week beginning 9th October.  It should have their name on the back of the photo.  

Home reading

The children will continue to bring home 2 reading books a week.  One will be on a Monday and another of their reading day.  The book should be a RWInc "book bag" book. This will link to your child's RWInc group and it may even be linked to the book they are reading that week in school. The book will contain the sounds they are learning in school. 

 

Please can children keep their reading books in their bookbag so they are ready to read with their teacher on their reading day and in case we get extra reading opportunities.

 

In order to support your child's reading, we ask that you read with your child as often as possible and write in the reading record to show that you have read. We are also setting the RWInc book each Thursday for your child to re-read at home. Please see example below of ideas for comments in the reading record. We do monitor home reading as it is imperative the children read and re-read books to build their fluency (reading speed) and expression. 

 

Please try to read little and often and daily if at all possible. 

We assess the children's phonic knowledge and reading every half term.

At Springfield we care, learn and achieve together
