Phase 4 Phonics

Wow, we are nearly there super spellers! Below are the last 5 blends of the Phase 4 sounds! The sounds before today have all focused on using 2 letters to make the blend but today we are looking at 3 letters creating the blend. Using the pictures and blends to help you can you have a go at completing the sentences below?

nch     scr     shr     thr     str

When we use the computer we look at the _ _ _een.

Another word for a bush might be a _ _ _ub.

How long is a piece of _ _ _ing?

One, two, _ _ _ee, four, five, once I caught a fish alive!

A church be_ _ _ is called a pew.

Using the link below you can hop over to Phonics Bloom and choose which game you prefer to play to help you build confidence with the Phase 4 blends. Have fun!

Happy Tuesday super spellers! To continue with the blends we learned yesterday can you have a go at reading the sentences below and then you could have a go at the word search I have created by clicking the link. Maybe you could create your own word search!

To recap the blends were; sm, pr, sc, sk and sn.

The boy was small, smart, and liked to smile.

The prince printed a picture of a flag.

I ate scones and drank milk in Scotland.

The stinky skunk has furry skin.

The snail in the rain wanted it to snow.

Monday

We have had a lovely morning playing lots of board games and puzzles that required us to use our maths and literacy skills.

Reception fun

This morning we had lots of fun at base camp building shelters and playing maths games outside.

Mini Olympics

On Friday the children had a fantastic time taking part in a range of Physical Activities and sporting events.

They observed the effects of exercise on their bodies, tried some new skills and enjoyed a bit of healthy competition too! Well done everyone!

Happy Monday super spellers! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend now that the sun has made a return! Well, here we are, at the beginning of our last week of Phonics with you in your current year groups!

Using the sounds and pictures given, can you complete the sentences below? It might be a good idea to try and say each sound first.

You might wear a _ _arf in Winter to keep warm.

We use our nose to _ _ell beautiful flowers.

These stinky animals are called _ _unks.

Reception Home Learning Monday 13th July

Wow. The last week of term has finally reached us. We are so proud of you all and hope your families were pleased with your reports. Thank you for working so hard and we are so proud of you. We look forward to seeing you all next year when you are in Year 1 and hope you have a lovely summer.

We will be posting activities over the Summer Holidays. These are for those families who want to use them and they are by no means compulsory. As your children will be moving into Year 1 in September they will no longer use Evidence Me in Year 1. Therefore we will not be checking this every day. It will most likely be checked weekly as will be the case for the Year R email too.

A massive thank you for all your support over the last few months and we hope you all have a wonderful break.

After school club arrangements – September 2020

Dear Parents/Carers,

We are delighted to be able to re-open our after school club in September as we know that many people rely on it to support their family needs.

The costs of this provision remain the same:

3.10pm – 4.30pm   £5.50

3.10pm – 6.00pm    £9.00

Many schools are suspending wrap-around-care but we very much want to be able to continue to support working parents. Be assured that we are very conscious of the need to abide by the government advice and guidelines concerning the ongoing Covid-19 threat, and therefore there will be some inevitable alterations to our provision.

Children will be grouped in bubbles and these groups will not mix. We will be keeping very clear records in case we have need of the ‘track and trace’ process.

Timings of ASC will remain the same but we must stress that if you have booked your child in until 6 pm then you will need to have collected them promptly as our site closes at 6 pm.

Collection will be slightly different as outlined below:

For collection of children before 4.30 pm, the office will be manned up until this time. You will be able to buzz through from the main entrance (do not enter the school building) and a member of staff in the office will radio through to ASC to have your child sent to you.

For collections of children after 4.30 pm, the double doors at the back of the hall will be your new collection point as it is a larger outdoor area in which to wait once the office is no longer manned. One of the ASC bubbles will be in the hall and their member of staff will radio though to the other bubbles as required to send for your child.

If you will require an after school place in September, we now need to know in advance exactly who will be attending and for how long. Please contact school in order to book your child in. We need as much notice as possible so that we can be confident in our staffing and room allocation. No same day bookings will be accepted for this reason.

Kind regards

FREE Breakfast Parcels

Ketley Community Centre are offering FREE Breakfast Parcels for children in receipt of free school meals who live with the Ketley or Overdale parish.

These will be handed out between Thursday 16th July – Thursday 20th Aug 2020 as part of Ketley Parish & Telford & Wrekin councils campaign to end holiday hunger.

These weekly parcels are for children in school years, aged 5-11yrs who are entitled to free school meals, and will be available for collection every Thursday between 10am-1pm over the summer holidays.

Parents need to register every week via the link:

https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/ketley-breakfast-club-tickets-111796771152

Breakfast parcel = 1 per child

Please note that the ticket relates to the collection date, not how many children they are collecting for, this information is collected within the registration form.

We are aware that a number of other groups within Telford are also offering the same offer, but as funding is very limited and kind donations from other sources are also limited we ask that parents that already receiving these elsewhere, do not look source additional parcels.

Breakfast parcels may vary each week and may contain: Bread, Milk, Cereal, Fruit, Jam, Beans, Juice & Porridge, we will also look to include additional non breakfast items to help support further meals.

Kind regards
