Woodpeckers 06.11.23

Date: 5th Nov 2023 @ 5:22pm

Hello Woodpeckers!

Sorry for delay in not posting on Friday, hope you have had a good weekend.  We have started to think about Christmas and what we could make to sell at the Christmas fayre. We have decided chutney so please could everyone bring in a clean jam jar (these will be sterilised when we use them).  Thanks for your help.

Our Learning Behaviour for week beginning 06.11 will be  'Tune in'. 

Our Value this half term is Trust.

Reminders

As we are now in the 2nd half of the Autumn term, please ensure your child has a coat every day as we try and get the children out into the fresh air, weather permitting.  Also can each child have a spare pair of socks brought in on PE days please. 

Monday: You all have PE Monday, so please come to school in your PE kits. 

Tuesday: Mrs Jordan teaching all day.

Thursday: Bentley Photographic will be in school next Thursday to take individual photographs of the children.  Please ensure everyone has a cardigan/jumper/fleece with them on the day.  Children will be sent home with a slip containing details of how to order copies of the photographs.  There will be a deadline for ordering them to be delivered to school - please adhere to this deadline, it is not set by the school.

Friday: Remembrance and Homework will be given out

Homework 

No homework was set on Friday so please  focus on reading, spellings and Times Tables.

Reading as usual.

You will also find the logins for Times Table Rock Stars and Spelling Shed in your planners. Please do log in to these websites to practise your spellings and times tables.

Reading Giants

Please read at least 5 times and note them in your Planners. Remember, this can be reading your school reading book, reading your own books, reading a magazine/comic, listening to a story read by a grown-up, listening to a story on a device (such as a Tonie box), watching a story online/on TV (eg CBeebies Bedtime story). We are promoting a love of reading, so read what you enjoy - just remember to write it in your Planner and ask your grown-up to sign it each week. Mrs Shand will check the planners each Friday and will give you a sticker on our Reading Giants chart if you have had at least 5 reading sessions! Remember - we are working as a team to collect the most reads so if you don't read at home, your  year team won't have a chance at winning the most reads across the school.

Times Tables

Another battle has been set alongside our class one. Bentley Year 3s and 4s are now competing against Woodpeckers! Come on Copdock!

Spellings - in homework books.

 Any questions, we're always on the playground at the end of the day- please speak to us.

Mrs Jordan and Miss Cross
