Diwali Week

This week we have been celebrating Diwali.

The children have heard the story of Rama and Sita,  watched videos of the parade and made Diya lamps within RE.

We will be enjoying a themed lunch on Thursday and are waiting patiently for our clay to dry so that we can then paint our Diyas! 

We will be sharing our learning tomorrow and listening to Year 3 explain how they made the laterns for the parade last weekend.

Helping at Home

Ways to help at home

  • Read every day
  • Practise your spellings and common exception words
  • As you read spot the sounds in words, can you find digraphs (two letters that make one sound) and trigraphs (three letters that make one sound)?
  • Count in 2s, 5s and 10s forwards and backwards
  • Learn your number bonds for all numbers to 20 (e.g number bonds to 7 are 1+6, 2+5, 3+4, etc.)
  • Practise telling the time to the hour, quarter past, half past, quarter to and as an extra challenge to 5 minute intervals (five past, ten past etc.)
