Welcome to Miss Dilks' Class!

Welcome back everyone!
I hope that you have had a lovely summer break and you are ready for all our new and exciting learning challenges this half term! Please see the newsletter for all our different learning challenges this half term! Key Information New spellings will be set on Spelling Shed each week. Please encourage your child to play on Spelling Shed as it is an enjoyable way to learn spellings. Reading We will continue to use monster phonic books and these will be sent home with your child daily. Please could you read as much as possible with your child asking them the key questions at the end of the book to support their comprehensions skills and use startegies for reading new words such as chunking the phonemes ( sounds) , looking at the picture, reading to the end of the sentence and trying to fit the word into the sentence, oral blending and segmenting of the phonemes. Please can you also video your child reading and upload it on the portfolio so that we can see how they are doing. We encourage children in school to read as much as possible for pleasure. This can be anywhere that they enjoy reading and is not always on a chair or at a table. Please support your child at home reading different types of books, magazines, recipe books, comics or anything that they are interested in. Maths In maths we are doing lots of counting and using lots of practical apparatus to support our understanding of numbers. You can support your child by counting out objects to 20 by counting them out 1 at a time, finding the total number of objects they have counted, saying which number would be 1 more and 1 less. You can also practise counting forwards and backwards and forming numbers the correct way round as show in on the video. English In English we will be focussing on writing sentences using capital letters, finger spaces and full stops. You an support your child by saying a sentence first and then using the monster phonics grapheme mats to support their spellings. Encourage your child to place a finger between each word and read their sentence back to check it makes sense. Homework A topic menu will be uploaded each week to support your child in their learning. Please choose an acitivty each day and upload this to class dojo. PE If your child is in school. Our P.E days are Tuesday and Thursday. Please remember that the children will be coming into school in their P.E. kits on these days. Our PE policy states PE kit is the following: a white top, black or navy bottoms, outdoor shoes/plimsolls and a plain jumper/jacket (your child could wear their school jumper). Please be mindful that we are trying to keep the PE kit as plain as possible. Please also make sure that all jewellery, including earrings is removed on these days. Please do not hesitate to contact me, via Dojo, if you have any questions or concerns or if you need something from the home learning explained. Miss Dilks |
