Woodpeckers 12.11.23

Date: 10th Nov 2023 @ 3:03pm

Hello Woodpeckers!

Good afternoon Woodpeckers! 

Our Learning Behaviour for week beginning 013.11 will be  'Work hard'. 

Our Value this half term is Trust.

Our words this week to listen out for are "consequence" a direct result or effect and "quaver" a musical note with the time value of half a beat.

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. 

Friday: Children in Need Day. Come dressed to express yourself!  Homework and spellings will be given out

All week: Odd Socks for anti-bullying week. Do wear your odd socks all week. We look forward to seeing your odd pairs!

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.

Please don't forget to keep bringing in your glass jars, ready for our chutney making. Many thanks.

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

Mrs Jordan and Miss Cross
