Our Topic is 'School Days'

In the School Days project, your child will have the opportunity to take part in a traditional Victorian class and will learn about the differences between schooling in the Victorian era and schooling today. They will learn about objects found in a Victorian classroom and how they were used. They will research Samuel Wilderspin, an important figure in the development of schooling for young children in the Victorian era, whose ideals are reflected in schooling today. They will learn to describe the passage of time through study of past, present and future tense vocabulary.

Homework:

Reading:  Reading is incredibly important and we would like each child to bring with them their books and yellow reading record each day in their folder.

Your child will take two different types of book home:

• Little Wandle Phonics book – this book will come home with your child on Friday, after completing their reading groups throughout the week, and is to be returned on Monday.
• Sharing book – this book has been chosen by them and should be enjoyed together. Therefore, it is important to remember that their chosen book may not directly match to their reading ability. They will be changed at different points through the week.
