  • This week, we have been:
  • innovating and writing our own versions of The High Street story
  • beginning to develop an understanding of time, including half hours and hours
  • creating our collage of the local area using collage materials
  • using geographical language to compare the physical and human features of a village, town and city
  • developing our understanding of how to play a game of rounders using fielding and batting skills
  • talking about moving on and growing up.

Please continue to read three times a week with your child, please record each read in their reading record before changing the book.  Reading with your child makes a huge impact on their rate of progress.

If your child is very confident with these, they could stretch their brains and use the words in a written sentence.
