Tell Me a Story
Welcome to St Anne's C of E Primary School
During the Spring Term our topic will be Tell Me a Story
This term our new topic is ‘Tell Me a Story’. Throughout the topic we will be reading a range of Traditional Tales and stories that link to different foods. We will be learning to retell stories using a Talk for Writing Method where the children use a story map and actions to help them retell it. We will be learning some new sounds in phonics and using them in our reading and writing. In Maths we will be thinking about numbers to 10 and use these in simple additions and subtractions. We will be looking at food and using our senses to help us describe them.

Clothing
Please make sure that all clothing is labelled including PE kits and shoes. In Class Reception we access our outside area in all weathers. As the weather will begin to get colder please make sure you send in coats, hats, gloves and scarves.
Water Bottles and Fruit
Children should bring a named water bottle each day. We provide free fruit on a daily basis or your child can bring their own piece of fruit for morning snack. Please don’t send them with other snacks such as with crisps, biscuits or chocolates.
Reading
We will be sharing lots of books in school and it is important that this continues at home. To support your child at home we encourage that they read with you daily. If they read for a minimum of 3 times a week and note it in their diaries they will receive a remarkable reader sticker and when they have done this for 5 weeks they will receive a prize.
PE
Our PE day this term will be a Thursday. Please send your child in wearing their PE kit on that day. Make sure everything is named so we can quickly get it back to the right child when we need to.
