Hello and welcome to Brambles. We are so excited for the year ahead and look forward to achieving lots of wonderful things together and celebrating your children. Please see the class pages and attached files for more information. If you have any questions then please do get in touch

Routines 

Reading books will be changed every Tuesday OR Friday once children have read at home

Homework will be given every Friday, in your child's homework book and should be completed by the following Thursday.

Additional homework may be set on mathletics

Further info

Please see the class information powerpoint from the meet the teacher evening in the link below for more information.

The Long term plan is also attached. We are currently in Year B.

Please could parents work on letter and number formation at home and prompt the correct use during homework, as these will be essential in ensuring your child understands particular aspects of their work fully. We are also trying to encourage correct use of the English language, while in conversation e.g because instead of coz, is/are (not 'there is lots of us') as this will help with spelling and the children's English writing.

If you find you have any issues with home reading, or want to know further informatiuon regarding reading and spelling/phonics levels please do contact us.
