Croeso i’r Ddosbarth Draenogod!
Welcome to the Hedgehogs’ Class!

    Welcome back to what promises to be a fun-filled Summer term, with lots of exciting learning activities to explore linked to our new topic.

    What a busy term we are going to have, as we begin our class topic ‘Scrumdidlyumptious.’ The children will be researching and learning all about Food, where it comes from and where it goes! The children have already got lots of ideas they would like to explore, which are displayed on our class EPIC board.

    Please remember to log in to follow our class SEESAW page to find out more about our exciting learning adventures.

    If you have any concerns regarding how your child is settling in, please don’t hesitate in contacting me.

    Diolch,

    Mrs Arundel

    Literacy, Language & Communication

    Spelling

    We follow the Read Write Inc (RWI) spelling scheme that supports your child when learning to read, write and spell words.

    Spelling words will be sent home every Tuesday, with a test on the following Tuesday.

    Practise your words at home using some ideas from the Spelling Menu below. Remember that words are saved to the class SEESAW account each week!

    Reading

    Oxford Reading Tree (ORT) staged books will be sent home every Friday. Please can you ensure your child’s reading book is returned to school by the following Wednesday. Parents/ Carers are encouraged to leave a comment on SEESAW, once a week, when they read with their child.

    Comments recorded about your child’s reading are important and help us to support you with helping your child’s reading development at home as well as in school. We hear children read throughout the week, either as part of a guided reading group or individually.

    Please note, only books that have been returned, will be changed.

    Mathematics & Numeracy

    Your child will have homework allocated to them via the Active Learn website every Friday.

    They have already been issued with a log in and password so that they can access the portal at home. If your child requires new log in information, please get in touch.

    We will continue to focus on Timestables throughout the year with Timestable Speed activities. The children are encouraged to practise their Timestables at home also using Times Table Rockstars.
