Hi all,
This week is ‘Walk to School Week!’ On Tuesday, children can wear their happiest (school-appropriate!) shoes to school. Please remember, that the class do have P.E. this day, so they may wish to bring an extra pair to wear when outside and at P.E.
On Friday, we will be going on a whole school walk to celebrate the end of the week. We will be walking with our P1 Buddies.
French Friday – On Friday, the class will be having a French style breakfast and can wear the colours of the French flag (red, blue and white!) to celebrate this day.
Peer Mediation – Mrs Kirby will begin to train the class to become Peer Mediators when they enter P7. This is when they will use restorative practice to help the children in the playground resolve any problems they may have. Our first sessions are on Monday afternoon and Friday morning.
P.E: Tuesday and Thursday – please come dressed for P.E and bring a water bottle for hydration.
Mandarin on Wednesday with Ms Sun.
Assembly on Friday at 11:30am.
Monday 23rd May – Holiday for pupils and inservice for staff.
We have decided we will not be using Chrome-books on a Friday in class, therefore children will not need to bring them into school on Fridays. However, the expectation is still that they are charged at home and brought to school Mon-Thurs.
Homework
Reading: Children will continue to have reading homework each night. Please encourage your child at least once a week to read aloud as this supports fluency and expression.
Spelling: Words should be written three times in neat, cursive handwriting in their jotter. I am encouraging the children to write in pen, to help them to take care when writing.
Numeracy: This task can be found on Google Classroom.
Please ensure that your child takes care with their spelling homework and completes both their spelling and numeracy homework for Friday. All children can access the homework because they all have a device.
Thanks for your support,
Miss Lauren Waller
