Phonics and Early Reading Meeting

Today the school took part in Number Day and raised money for the NSPCC. Lots of fun was had with some great number based activities throughout the day.
The mud kitchen really lived up to its name this week! The children had a great time in forest school getting muddy and making lots of interesting recipes.
We were lucky enough to have a break in the weather this week and still managed to get outside for some forest school fun!
The excitement has grown this week as we continued to receive letters via paper aeroplane. We decided to reply in the same way which led us to a wonderful book called The Misadventures of Frederick.
High levels of concentration were required this week as the children followed instructions to make a paper aeroplane. This was followed by writing instructions for others to make one. This was needed because we received a letter by plane at the start of the week which caused a lot of excitement!
Christmas at school is a magical time for the children. They have had a wonderful day meeting Father Christmas and some real reindeer!
The busy festive period is upon us and we have been creating some wonderful Christmas crafts, learning our lines and singing songs.
Prince Ronald from the story The Paper Bag Princess was very rude about the Year 2 staff! We decided it was time to teach him some manners and we also learned about the rules of etiquette!
