Well, it has been another very busy week in Room 4.  I’m not quite sure where the time goes but we seem to have plenty to fill it with!

Things to ask the children about this week.

• We have been focussing on capital letters this week.
• Can you spot any capital letters at home?
• Can you write the lower case letter that matches the capital letter.
• Can you sing the alphabet song.
• Can you remember all the letter names and sounds?
• We have been finding larger and smaller numbers. so for example, if I say the number 14, can you tell me a larger number and a smaller number.
• In Forest School this week we made perfume using water and other object the children collected such a leaves, flowers.  Perhaps they could make one at home and write down a list of the ingredients they used.
• We have written our own amazing versions of The Very Hungry Caterpillar this week.  We thought carefully about what the caterpillar might eat and the children had lots of their own suggestions.  Perhaps they can tell you what their caterpillar ate.
• We have been looking carefully at our class caterpillars.  I am sure the children can tell you what exciting thing has happened to them this week?
• We have been continuing to practise reading and writing some very tricky phase 3 words. Maybe they can show you how to spell: are, you, they, all, her.

Next week, please can the children wear PE kit on Monday, Tuesday (Sports Day) and Thursday. Forest School as usual on Wednesday. Normal uniform on Friday!

If you have any cardboard tubes or small boxes at home, our junk modelling draw is looking a little low and we would really appreciate a few donations.

I hope you have a fantastic weekend.
