Spellings Week beginning 23rd November

This week we are learning about the prefix – ‘re’ which usually means again or back. We have discussed how it is added to the root word to change it’s meaning

e.g. root word = write and the new word is rewrite when the prefix is added. If you want to do more, you can find examples of other -‘re’ words.

Remote Learning

A letter has been sent home with children today about using Teams for remote learning in the event of a Covid closure, bubble isolation or lockdown. Please look out for it and keep them safe as it contains instructions on how to log-in.

Hopefully, we will not need to return to remote learning; however, it is better to be prepared. We feel Teams will enable us to have some face to face contact with our classes during any period of remote learning.

Reception, you have not been forgotten. You will receive yours very soon too.

Red class news

This week in Red class, we went on Purple Mash and looked at the tasks which have been set. We also went on Classroom Secrets and all of the children have their individual logins in their reading diaries. You can check them out at home too as there are tables and spelling games set for the children to practise.

Do remember that children can go on Times Tables Rock Stars and we have set the 8 times table to learn this week.
