The children in Willow Class are enjoying reading and listening to stories from the Oxford Owl website.  I have set up a Willow Class login for them to access this at home.  The books work alongside our phonics scheme – Read Write inc. There are also several sound blending books on there for your child to practise segmenting and blending CVC words, this will also help them to become more confident with reading whole words.

Children in Willow Class have had a super start to the new school year.  You should all be very proud of your son/daughter.

We have all been so impressed with how quickly the children have started to learn the new routines and how independent they are already!

This week we have concentrated on the story of The Colour Monster

We will continue to explore the story and emotions next week.

Next week we will have our first P.E. lesson on Thursday.  Can you please send your child to school ready, they will stay in these clothes all day.

Tapestry – if you have not done so yet, can you please read this Tapestry letter. Then send an email to class1@bicton.shropshire.sch.uk   to confirm you have read the letter and agree to the guidelines, once this is done, I will be able to set up your child’s account.

Have a lovely weekend.

Hello Class 1 Children, Mums and Dads,

once again thank you very much for all the lovely updates you have added. They always put a big smile onto my face.
I hope you enjoyed doing some of the Superworm activities, the  Key worker children in class certainly enjoyed our wormy tasks!
This week the main story is ‘The Snail and the Whale’ by Julia Donaldson. There is a lovely movie of the story to watch to start the week off.  The planning document is now on Tapestry.

Read Write inc – The Keyworker children who have been in class, are watching the New Set 2 sound and Spelling videos this week (Rosie has changed the words to read and spell). They have also watched Red Words 1.  If you are watching the Red Word videos, I would recommend writing the words covered onto paper and practising them over the week.

I hope you all have a super week,

take care and stay safe,
Mrs Bowes xx
