Kingfishers

Hello! A big welcome to Kingfishers class!

Take a look around our class page to see all the exciting things that we are learning each term. 

Phonics/ Reading/ Spellings

Each child has a home a reading diary and a book, please read the book with your child at least three times per week .

In the Autumn Term they will then earn a loop on their reading chain, to encourage the amount of reading expected. (Who will make the longest chain?) After that we will be following our Reading Rivers to track what books we have read. and practice the phonemes and tricky words or their year group spellings inside their reading diaries - more information about this is in their reading diary. 

Numbots/ TT Rockstars

Your child will have a Numbots and TT Rockstars login where your child can practice  number skills, multiplication and division knowledge. 

Alternatively practice your maths skills using 'Hit The Button' supporting your child with addition and subtraction, number bonds, doubling and halving.

Homework

Later in the term, children will be given a new set of spellings weekly which focuses and recaps the phonemes that they have been learning that week with common exception words or year group spellings. We have a weekly spelling quiz taking place on Fridays. We are looking for superstars aiming for 10/10 who are awarded house points for their team!  

Children will also be given a homework booklet for the term and is due in every Friday so we can see how many points your child has earned for some fabulous prizes!

Please can you make sure that your child completes the fun activities set, signed off and is returned to Kingfishers Class on a Friday.
