PE will be on Friday each week.
Children will need to bring their PE kits on a Monday and we will send them home on a Friday as other P.E lessons will take place throughout the week. Anybody who wears earrings will need to remove them either at home or be able to do this in class independently.
Any questions please just come and ask!
Homework
This half term in Rowan class we have a homework menu which links closely to our topic in class. Please complete an activity each week and return the homework by Wednesday. Work can be submitted in your child's blue homework book or on Class Dojo.
Any problems please come and see an adult in Rowan class before Wednesday.
Apart from the obvious benefits of improving reading skills, by encouraging children to read regularly, it can improve their imagination, spelling and punctuation accuracy. Reading also improves their concentration and vocabulary. The habit also makes children more stylish writers, as they copy elements of authors they have enjoyed and adopt these as their own. Children who read for pleasure are far more academically successful than those that don’t. So it really is a no-brainer: good reading habits make successful children.
By reading regularly with you and discussing the situation that characters find themselves in, children have an invaluable opportunity to help build empathy skills. For example, if a character in a book is being treated unkindly by a classmate, it gives a ‘safe space’ for relationships and treatment of others to be discussed in a situation where children can be objective and measured, rather than approaching the issue with bias and heightened emotion, as may often be the case when these situations arise in their real lives.
In Rowan class we will have the 'Reading Superstar' system. This involves you and your child sharing a book; they will get a tick for each day they read which will earn them a prize.
3 times (days) a week - your child will earn 1 Dojo point.
4 times (days) a week - your child will earn 2 Dojo points.
5 or more times (days) - your child will earn 3 Dojo points and a prize from the prize box.
Unfortunately not the ones with chocolate chips.
