| CLASS NEWS THIS WEEK: |
Children are expected to read each night at home and their books should be brought into school each day for extra reading practice. Year 2 children complete a small quiz in school when they have finished their book (any day of the week – just let your class teacher or teaching assistant know when you have finished each book) and will then be able to choose their own new book. We have already seen some amazing homework taking place, so please continue to build your projects! Also continue to practice spellings, ready for our spelling test on Fridays. |
