Here are some ways that you can help your child keep organised and excel in their learning at school:

 

• Avoid lost property by making sure ALL their possessions – especially coats, jumpers and bags - are marked with their name.
• Encourage your child’s growing independence by letting them begin to organise what they need each day for school.
• Listen to your child read for 15 minutes daily if possible; and ask them about their books. Please record what you read in their planner.
• Practise maths skills in an enjoyable and informal way – e.g. TT Rockstars, MyMaths, number games, mental arithmetic, table facts and maybe even practically!
• Encourage and support them to complete their Homework Challenges to a high standard - as independently as possible.  (Please ask your child’s teacher for any resources or support you may need.)  Post any completed work to their Classdojo portfolio for feedback.

 

PE (see ClassDojo)

Children should arrive in PE kits on the days they have PE. PE will be done outdoors where possible.

• PE t-shirt with school jumper over;
• PE shorts with joggers over (can be removed easily if we do PE indoors)
• Trainers (trainers are preferable for outdoor PE and also suitable for indoors if necessary. Plimsolls are not suitable for all day wear.)
