Team 1 - WB 7.10.24

Date: 11th Oct 2024 @ 2:58pm

Another week has flown by and boy has it been a busy one.

It has been delightful to meet so many parents at parents evening this week, either face to face or via zoom. Thank you for all the positive comments you made about your child's transition into team 1. We were thrilled to hear that you are seeing progress at such an early stage of the academic year. As always, you are welcome to email us during the hours of 8am-6:30pm Monday to Friday if you have any questions or messages to pass on. We will endevour to get back to you as soon as possible. 

In English this week, your children have been little superstars and have continued with their big write. We have been so impressed with their resilience and tenacity and have already identified some budding writers amongst.them. Their stories have been fabulous and I am sure they will be able tell you all about them.

In maths, we have been learning the art of counting on. For instance, if the children are adding together 5 and 3, they know to start at 5 (and not 0) and just count 3 on from there. We have been using physical/concrete apparatus, then moved onto pictorial representations and then played games to consolidate our knowledge. Number lines were brilliant to help! They can practise this at home with any household objects lying aroound!

Have a great weekend!
