Please find attached this week's spellings for the next spelling test (06.05.25). For this week, your child has spelling activity (to be completed independently) and a Maths revision activity to refresh their understanding of temperature. 

Please have a look at your child's reading book for this week and encourage your child to keep revisiting it when they can. For our phonics lessons this spring, we are now using comprehension booklets which your child will take home on each week (the day may change now and again due to our weekly timetable) as a storybook replacement. This is along with a new phonics book, a new challenge tree book and book band book.  I have already set Doodlemaths tasks for this week and lastly, don't forget to keep on using Spelling Shed a few minutes at a time.

Please remember to send in your child with their Forest School Kit  in case you have not already as the children will be taking part in Forest School each Monday whatever the weather. 

Have a great week!
