Week commencing 1st March 2021
This is our last week of home learning (hopefully!) so let’s make sure we work as hard as we can so we are ready to return to school next week! Your daily Dojo challenge will be put on the app each day so remember to check it and you can also see some of the learning that your classmates are doing! We will give you a call at some point but don’t forget you can always message us on Dojo if there’s anything you need from us.
There is a live Teams meet up for Reception on Thursday at 2pm. Invitations have been sent to your Microsoft Teams account. It is World Book Day so there is an option of dressing up and it would be great if your child could bring their favourite book to share. We look forward to seeing you then.
Reading: Please complete 20 minutes on Reading Eggs every day. The teachers are able to monitor how much Reading Eggs you are completing.
Please remember that you can use the vast resources available on the online library on Oxford Reading Owl
or East Sussex Library ebooks

Week commencing 22nd February 2021
Hello and welcome to Term Four! We hope that you enjoyed some restful family time together during half term. We are hopeful that we will be back together in school as soon as it is safe to do so. In the meantime we will continue to provide daily learning activities via our class dojo page.
It is really important that you support your child to access the dojo challenges along with the set phonics and maths lessons as not only will it help provide some structure to your days in lockdown, it will prevent gaps from developing in your child’s knowledge and reinforce the expectation and habits of learning – persevering when a challenge is tricky, completing a task set by teachers, always trying their best.
In addition this term we will be offering some live sessions via Micosoft Teams for the Reception children so keep a look out for further details and your child’s invitation via email.
As we have moved into term four we would like to trial introducing spellings for the children in Minnows and Sardines to help to start preparing them for Year One. We will be setting 5 words each week for them to practise as part of their daily handwriting practise and then on a Friday you will be able to send us your score. Parents please remember this is a new skill for the children and so participation is what is important at the start – we always praise when children have tried their best!
This weeks words for handwriting and spelling are:

Week beginning 19th October 2020
Welcome to the last week of term. The children have been fantastic this term and have settled into school life extremely well. We are so pleased that so many of our parents are using class dojo to communicate with us, and share home learning. It is so important that you take the time to become familiar with class dojo as a parent and help your child to create their own user profile as in the event of us having to do remote learning this will be how we deliver our lessons and pupils will submit work.
If you are supporting your child with remote learning this week due to self-isolation please use the following resources and share via dojo.
Maths this week will be focusing on numbers. Please use the videos and resources from White Rose EYFS Its Me 1, 2, 3 unit https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/early-years/its-me-1-2-3-week-1/
and watch the Numberblocks Series 1 episodes 1-4 https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b08bzfnh/numberblocks
In Literacy this week we will be looking at non fiction instruction text, specifically recipes. We will be making bread in school following the recipe. Whilst you are at home could you watch this episode of Come Outside to learn about making bread https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGb8ZFgNDhc
It would be great if you could make some bread at home or you could follow these instructions to make some toast. (WARNING Adult supervision will be required)
Alternatively you could make a family favourite recipe or try something new from a cookbook. You can check out https://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/curations/cbeebies-house-recipes for lots of child friendly recipes. As well as all the maths opportunities we want the children to learn the new key words: recipe, ingredients, equipment, first, next, then, after, finally.
Phonics this week will be focusing on rhyme and oral blending and segmenting please complete the following activities Phonics rhyming oral blending & segmenting
Look out for info on our parents phonic workshop on the class dojo page this week.
Half term
We would have loved to take the children on a trip this term, alas with current additional safety measures due to covid19 we could not. It would be brilliant if you could over half term take your child to one or more of the following; a farm, a bakery, and a farmers market. Please remember to share videos or photos of your adventures on class dojo.
Week beginning 12th October 2020
This week in school we shall be continuing our learning of the Little Red Hen, reading different versions of the text, and looking at the similarities and differences.
