Happy Friday!

Posted: Sep 11, 2020 by: Emma Barker (EBarker) on: Class 2

Wow! What a week it's been. I'd like to say a huge thank you to all of Class 2 and your lovely adults for being patient with our new systems and listening to instructions. It's never easy coming back after the long summer holidays, but this year has been especially challenging. It takes a long time to get our hands washed and go to the toilet but each day we are getting better and better at it!

This week has been all about settling in. The children have quickly got used to our new routines and we even managed a bit of work here and there! We've done lots of talking and listening to each but just having the chance to be back at school, playing with friends has made us all smile.

Here's is the Class 2 curriculum letter, telling you all about this half term. There is a lot of information on there, so please take your time to read it. As you will see, our PE days are Tuesday and Thursday. Please ensure you child comes to school ready in their PE kit. Homework will normally go out on a Friday and I aim to start next week, I'm just awaiting log in details for Mathletics. I will also send reading books home next week. We normally have lots of volunteers in school to help with changing books but things are a little different at the moment - so PLEASE be kind if we can't change books as regularly as we have in the past. Please continue to share books that you have at home for now or look on line at sites like Oxford Reading Tree, for lots of free online books.

As I mentioned, I'm not setting any homework this week - just keep talking to your child/children about any worries (ask them about the worry stick they made today) and do some counting in 1's, 2's, 5's and 10's all the way to 100 and back again - if possible! You can do this activity anywhere and as often as possible.

Have a lovely weekend and see you back at school on Monday!
