2K Autumn 2 Week 14
16 Dec 2022
It was so lovely to see so many loved ones come and support the Nativity for the first time in three years. We are incredibly proud of how well the children performed.
English
This week we have focused on handwriting and spelling along with in writing short messages for Christmas.
Maths
Children have continued to focus on using column addition.
Below is an excellent app for your child to practise maths skills for one minute every day. White Rose Maths is the scheme we currently use at school.

This will support your child’s maths learning at home alongside numbots and timetable rockstars.
Spellings
All children now have their new Spelling Shed all login details in the inside cover of their reading record.
Reading books
We will move children on to the next appropriate book bag book when we have determined that they are reading their current one fluently. The skills of decoding (breaking down into phonetic chunks) and comprehension are important, but we are aiming to develop fluent, confident readers. Moving children on too quickly does not benefit them in the long term.
Your child will still have the opportunity to change their library book each week even if their book bag book is not changed for fluency reasons.
