We will begin to send reading folders home each evening. These will contain a reading
book, sound cards -that will be added to on a weekly basis and ‘tricky words’ for your child to recognise. Please return this
folder to School every day. The children will read individually to myself or Miss Williams twice a week and we will be assessing
their progress regularly.
Dear Parents
Welcome to an exciting Autumn Term . The Reception staff are pleased with the way the children are settling in at school. However, we do appreciate that attending school full-time is a big change for all children and some may adapt quicker than others. It is important that staff and parents work together so should you have any worries or concerns about your child, please come and talk to any member of the Reception staff. Thank you. Detailed below is some key information that will help this term run smoothly.
Detailed
We will continue to use the topic approach to our learning and will be planning from the children's
questions and interests.
Our topics this term are.....
Autumn One Keeping Safe
Autumn Two
Light
PE- Our P.E session will be on Wednesdays, so can you please ensure your child has a named P.E kit in school
for the entire week.
Water bottles- It is important that your child has a water bottle in school
every day. We talk to the children about how drinking water regularly is
important in keeping them healthy so access to water is crucial to this
learning.
Home Learning folders will be given to your child on a Tuesday and will need to be returned the
following Monday. All home learning will be linked to an area of the curriculum and will be a topic that has been covered within the
class.
Please encourage your child to complete this using a writing pencil and keep all completed
sheets within the folder. Thank you for your support.
The children will continue to learn new sounds every
week at school and these will be inserted into your child’s reading folder. Will
you please ensure you practise these every night
with your child. We are also encouraging the children to
know the letter name of each sound and would
appreciate your support in reinforcing this as well.

plan appropriate activities.
