The children have made a wonderful start to
the term; they have settled will into class routines including lunchtime and
the independence of using a tray and being served as they enter the dining room.
We found out more about each other while
completing a “Human Treasure Hunt”. The children designed “name bugs” which are
on display in class. We have worked in a variety of different groups and
enjoyed playing team and friendship games. The children worked on designing
their own personal shields, to include meaningful things in their lives.
We started both Literacy and Numeracy
lessons. Our class book is “The Hodgeheg” by Dick King-Smith. The children
think that the muddled-up way in which Max; the main character, speaks is
simply hilarious.
Letters regarding “MyMaths” have been sent
out this week which includes a personal user name and password for your child.
In Year 3 your child will start using
his or her own, individual user name and password to log on and use the class
computers. Please can you ensure that your child can write his or her full
name.
We will introduce
and begin work on our new Topic ‘Living Together’ next week – more details to
follow.
We have had a wonderful start to the new
school year and look forward to an exciting and educational year ahead.
Have a wonderful weekend.
