Forest School
We will continue with our Forest School sessions this year. Willow Class on a Thursday and Oak Class on a Monday. Please continue to send your child to school in their Forest School kit on this day. More details will be published on Tapestry.
Literacy at Home 
Please read lots of different stories and information books to your child at home. Ask questions about what is happening in the story. Can they guess what might happen next? Ask them to retell the story to you. Can they tell you who the characters in the story are? Look for letters and words in the environment.
Numeracy at Home
It is important that the children can say the numbers in order to 20 and beyond. Look for numbers and shapes in the environment. Can they find a number 2 on a door or a number 7 on the bus? Can they see a square window or a circle shaped grid? Can they count how many chairs are around the table or how many packets of crisps are in the bag - touching each item as they count?
A Special Visitor
Throughout the day we give out stickers and certificates to children who are being superstars and working hard. Please give your child lots of praise if they come home with stickers and certificates. We also choose a child to take home a special animal who needs to be looked after every Friday. He needs to be looked after very carefully and needs to clean his teeth, put his pyjamas on and go to bed early! Please bring him back to school the following Thursday or before. You can put photos of your child's adventures with the animal on their Tapestry Learning Journey.
