Dear Parents, We completed our word/sound check on Friday on the words from The lost ball. Those are the purple words in the word wallet. The yellow words are from the Splash! book. I have assigned some Maths tasks in Studyladder this week. We will have no homework on Thursday this week. Maybe you can do the Studyladder activities that day. We visited the Fire Station last Thursday. Some pictures of the visit are on our class website. The children will have a maths assessment this week. For some practice put up to 6 similar items on a table and ask them how many are there? Get them to tell you without counting out loud. Have a great Halloween!!

Note on Word Wallet: We are revising our words from last year’s readers. I have provided a word wallet in your child’s folder. This is to be used to store our words. It should be stored in the child’s homework folder. I will add the words to the wallet as we introduce them.
Word Wallet Activities.
1. You can ask your child to read and spell the words to you.
2. You can make up sentences for your child to read.
3. Get your child to make up sentences for you.
If your child has difficulties with the word ask them to sound it out. Eg Kitty K-i-t-t-y or has h-a-s. This skill of sounding out or attacking a word will help with many new words in the future.
