Homework: 30.09.2011 - due in 7.10.2011

Spellings: (Please remember we test on a Thursday)

Please learn your spellings for this week.  Please continue to use the method:

1. Learn the word (say the word aloud/think about the sounds – add the “SOUND BUTTONS” underneath if necessary – AND THEN cover it up so your child can’t see it and they are not simply copying it!)
2. Write the word and check it
3. Write the word again and check it

• If possible this method should be repeated several times at home, e.g. on a whiteboard/blackboard, magnetic letters if available or simply scrap paper!

* Homework:

• Please continue to use the laminated handwriting sheet provided!
• In our science topic – HEALTH AND GROWTH we are currently learning about healthy diets and food for activity, health and growth. 
• Please support your child in designing a healthy meal with a good balance of food!  They should also be encouraged to write labels next to their pictures, e.g. peas!
