We have had a fab day getting to know each other, and all the children have made a great first impression!!

Today we have completed a Maths lesson, chosen new reading books and sorted reading diaries, completed our home-link books for September and voted for our class book which we have started to read ” The Toilet of Doom!”

The children have been set a small piece of homework that needs to be ready for Friday morning. If they wish to become 4M’s School Council representative or 4M’s Sports Ambassador, they need to prepare a small speech which they will read to the rest of the class. The rest of the class will then vote in a democratic way (part of our PSHE work) for their chosen representatives. I am fully aware this is not for everyone – but please encourage your chid to take part. If they do not wish to do a speech they could present a small PowerPoint that they could share – this can be emailed to me.

I have spoken to the children about their reading books and they have all been issued a Yr 4 reading book (grey sticker banded) their other reading book is a free choice book from home. Both need to be with the children each day. The children have also been given their reading diaries, which they can complete each time they read – parents please can I ask that following the school policy you also complete these, at least three times per week, listening to your child read.

Please can we all be aware of the weather this week – sunhats, sun cream and drinks bottles are needed as we have some children with out.

If anyone has any problems queries then please do not hesitate to contact me on ben.moody@taw.org.uk

kindest regards

Mr M
