Sometimes PE days will need to change due to the weather or due to other school commitments.
What's happening in class this week?
Spelling Tests
We will be testing children using the Common Exception Words and spelling they have learned in Letters and Sounds. We will not be sending words home to learn every week. We will let you know what we are learning each week. Children can continue to learn common exception words at home.
Your child could use this look, cover, write check sheet to practise their spellings. If you would like a paper copy please ask in school.
