2+6=8
6+2=8

Read, Write Inc.
This week in Read, Write Inc. we have been reviewing sounds we know and learning new sounds. We have continued to use our sounds to read and write words, phrases and sentences. In particular, we have been looking for special friends in our words, saying the sounds and reading the word. Any practise at home reading a word by finding the special friends, saying the sounds and reading the word would be greatly appreciated! We have also been working hard on our handwriting and writing sentences with capital letters and full stops.
Reading
Please can we have all reading books from school back in by Thursday next week please (RWI books and Learning zone coloured books).
PSHE
Today has been money sense day! We have been learning about the difference between wants and needs and that money needs to be looked after. We also learned about how jobs help people to earn money, the different jobs that people do and about the strengths and the interests that someone might need to do different jobs.
