Literacy

This week we begin reading the text Clean Up! This time Rocket, our main character, will teach our children about looking after our planet. We will also learn how to reuse, reduce and recycle our rubbish. 

This week we will be thinking about how to reuse different materials such as plastic and cardboard.

How can you reuse an old plastic bag?

Maths

In maths this week we are exploring 2D shapes. We are manipulating shapes, composing and decomposing shape pictures.

Phonics

In phonics lessons this week, we are going to continue working on the sounds we already learnt, but we will be using them to read and write more complex words with consonant clusters e.g. land, swift. We will also be learning to read and write words with the -er and -est endings (which are used in the comparative and superlative forms of adjectives e.g. big, bigger, biggest)

Please do continue to encourage your child to complete their phonics homework.
