We practised our races for Sports Day on the real track. We hope you can come to watch us next Tuesday at 2.15pm.

This week we finished decorating the other side of our wood cookie. We hammered nails in and decorated it with wool or elastic bands.
Home Practice
Read for at least 10 minutes every night. This is so important. We are encouraging the children to organise their own reading books and to make sure they are in their green school bag every day.Please sign the diary so we can change the books. Keep practicing reading the Tricky Words on sight. Please just write a note in the diary if you need the next set.

Count on and back in 2s, 5s and 10s. Start on different numbers. Talk about whether the numbers are getting bigger or smaller.
See if your child can recall the halves we have been learning, half of 2 is 1, half of 4 is 2 and so on. We have also been looking at doubling numbers so ask your child to double 1, double 2 and so on.
