Welcome back to the New Year of 2023!

The children have settled so well this week and we all feel they have all really grown up in their attitude and behaviour towards learning.

This week was a Winter Wonderland week but we didn't get the snow I ordered from the sky!

We would like to remind parents/carers that 5 minutes a day of reading will make a huge difference to your child in these early stages.

We are looking for fluency, so when they come to read it after few goes they will not need to blend the words at all. It may be like they have memorised the book.

Please see  soon a short video of myself on MICROSOFT TEAMS helping you with the new speedy reading part of reading at home.

This is the start of the children recognising shapes of familiar words as we do automatically ourselves.

Here are a few highlights.

Painting Snowmen

Catching the drips.

Sorting and matching the dots using subitising skills - NOT COUNTING

Using conceptually subitising to add dots together to make a new total 4,5 or 6 - NOT COUNTING

Using our skills to recognise 4 and 5 in different contexts.

Thank you for all your support at home.

Mrs Oddy and the Team.
