Spellings

This week’s spellings have the ck, ff, zz and ss sounds. Children will be tested on six of the words below, plus a bonus spelling from last week. Thank you for all of your support with their spellings.

English

The children have got a story map of Dangerous to practise and perform to you. The more the children orally rehearse the story, the more confident they will be with their writing next week. As I did with the Supertato story map, I have included a written version for you to refer to and prompt your child with. This is not for them to read off or learn the story from. Equally for those children who can read it - AMAZING!



Read, read, read!

The children are doing so well with their flashcards and it is having a noticeable impact on their reading. On the How to help your child page, there is a link to all of the flashcards.

Children who have completed learning the flash cards on sight, are now challenging themselves to spell them (starting from word set 1).


A special favor…

As part of their Geography learning children will be learning how to write their own address. I would love the children to experience receiving their own special letter in the post, but I must ask for your help with this. Please could your child bring an envelope, which they have written their name and address on, including a postage stamp (any class). The children will be doing this learning on the 2nd December but I wanted to give you lots of time. I would be so grateful if you could help me with this; I want all of the children to receive some Christmas joy in the post, from a ‘secret’ class friend. Thank you so much!

Passwords for Purple Mash and IXL, can be found in the back of your child’s Reading Log.
