Weekly Update 9.12.22
Posted: Dec 9, 2022 by: K Simms (k.simms) on: Willow Tree Class Blog
Hello everyone,
It has certainly been a Wintery week this week and we have had to make sure to wrap up warm when we have been outside!
In Willow Tree, we have been extremely busy preparing for out Carol Service on Monday and we can't wait to see you there!
We have been practising our times tables and challenging ourselves to solve maths problems using our multiplication, addition and subtraction skills.
In English, we have been writing our letters to Caroline Lawrence to say thank you for writing 'The Thieves of Ostia' and to tell her our favourite parts and favourite characters.
In topic, we have created our very own Roman shields and we will be using these to practise our Roman battle formations that we learnt at Murton Park in September.
As we rapidly approach the Christmas holidays, it is now more crucial than ever that children are reading consistently at home so that they are ready and raring to go in January. We would like to remind you that your child should be reading at least 5 times each week at home and that their reading record should be signed so we can keep track of this. They are not limited to what they should be reading and we encourage the children to choose books they enjoy to read for pleasure alongside their school reading book.
It has been pleasing to see that more and more children are completing their homework and returning it by the Wednesday. New homework will be sent home today and children will need to return this next Wednesday.
Next week, we have our Christmas party on Wednesday and children may come in to school wearing non-uniform/ party clothes. On Friday, we will be celebrating Christmas jumper day and children are invited to wear a Christmas top/jumper for the day.
Have a lovely weekend,
Miss Simms
