Term 3, Week 4

Key dates 

  • Friday 30th January – Inset day. School closed to children

Fairytales

  • Over the next week (w/c 26th January), we are going to be learning about fairytales. If you speak another language and would be happy to come into school and read your child’s class a fairytale in another language, please speak to your child’s class teacher. 

  • We would love to read lots of different fairytales in school. Please bring in any named copies of fairytale books you have at home. Alternative versions also welcome!

Tapestry observation 

The focus this week is Literacy. We would love to see your child using their phonics to write some labels for things in your home (could be a photo of an object with their writing on a piece of paper or post-it note, or labels written on a whiteboard) eg box, chair, shelf. 

You can also send us any moments that you feel are significant in your child’s learning or want to share with your child’s class teachers. Click the links below to find out how to add observations from different devices.
