Homework this week is reading and poetry on Friday. No spelling alive homework until we get this well underway in the classroom. Our class books for writing, maths and RE are well underway a lot of junior work is in these books as we work collaboratively. This will give you a clear idea on what we are doing in class you are more than welcome to come and look at these. We also do a lot of work on the whiteboards so not always in your child's books. The Room 1 class soft toy pet is out and about on adventures with your children this week, feel free to write about what your child has been up to with the toy or just take a picture and pop it in the book.
Have a happy and safe week
