6sess
Week 1 Term 1
Hi Everyone
Thanks for sending your children to school
with such great smiles and lovely attitudes.
We have had a great start to the year already.
This is just a quick note to let you know a
few things:
Swimming is on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday for the next 6 weeks so please
make sure they have dry togs and towel.
We have “Catch me if you can” ball skills on Monday, Tuesday and Thursdays
so please make sure they have running shoes on.
We have Library time on Mondays so please make sure they have their books
ready to return on Monday mornings.
We will begin our core programme gradually
over the next few days. In my class each
group will have a new book on Monday and Wednesday. This means they will be
rereading the same book on Tuesday and Thursday. My philosophy for this programme came from my
experience as a Reading Recovery teacher and ensures that the children know the
text well when they come to do their comprehension activities and that they
have the chance to gain confidence to read the text fluently. Their school reading book should be only part
of the reading they do at home and it is always exciting to hear they have lots
of books from the library to read as well.
We will soon be doing spelling testing and
their homework book will come home with words to learn each week.
If you have anything you would like to
discuss please drop in to make an appointment.
I look forward to meeting you all at the “Meet the Parents” evening in a
few weeks.
See you soon.
Joy
