Maths at Home

As a school we use an online maths programme called Numbots to support children’s learning of key mathematical concepts. Numbots is an interactive game where children can earn coins for completing maths challenges. I have attached a link below to a child friendly video explaining a little bit about how Numbots works:

Children will be sent home today with their login details. The website can be accessed via the link below:

We also use the White Rose 1 minute maths app which is directly linked to the maths curriculum that we follow in school. The app is designed to develop children’s understanding of key mathematical concepts and will help them as they progress through school. The app is free to download and you do not need any login details to access the activities. Below is a link to the White Rose website where you can find a bit more information about the 1 minute maths app.

RWI Phonics

Thank you to everyone who attended our phonics meeting last night, it was so lovely to be able to share how we teach phonics with you and I hope you all found it useful.

For those that were unable to attend, I have sent a copy of the information given out yesterday home with your child today along with log in details for the Oxford Owl website where you will have access to the RWI e-books.

Last night we discussed phonics videos that are linked to the sounds we are learning in school. As requested, I will post the links to the videos on our website for all of the sounds we have taught so far. As the videos are only accessible via an online subscription the post will need to be password protected. I will send details of the password out via an email bulletin separately.

Thank you again for your continued support and please do let us know if you have any questions.

The Scarecrows’ Wedding 02.10.23

This week in Green class, the children will be exploring the story ‘The Scarecrows’ Wedding’ by Julia Donaldson. If your child has attended any weddings, we would love to see photographs so we can share their experience. Photographs can be uploaded onto Tapestry or emailed to school.
Thank you for your continued support.
