          • Choose a times table you are not confident with and learn it off by heart.
          • Let's get creative! Paint, draw, collage a rainbow to put in your window. You can decide what to use, how big it is and choose a positive message to write underneath it. It will cheer people up as they walk past and make them smile.

Reading books will be changed every Thursday. Please ensure that books and signed reading diaries are in school each Monday. Library books will be changed every two weeks. It is important that your child reads every evening. This could be done independently or with the help of an adult or older sibling.

 

 

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to speak to us in the morning or at the end of the school day.

 

Mrs Rafferty and Miss Kavanagh
