Learning about Rainforest Animals as part of our Spring Term Project
We've been on a Bog Baby Hunt! 
Maths Passports
Each child is given their own maths passport. Inside there are number fact challenges to work through. Children recieve bronze, silver and gold awards.
When you have practised, please sign inside their Mad about Maths book. After every 10 practises your child will recieve a certificate and their name will be on the newsletter.
Challenges will be set and tested every Thursday (this is a change for Spring Term). Please ensure their book is in school on this day.

This project will have an arts focus.
We will be learning exploring mindfulness, relaxation and valuing our surroundings.
As part of our project children will:
- take digital photographs
- spend time in the outdoor area
- make musical instruments

- work in the style of an artist
Our Science Topic is:
Plants
The children will be spending the last half term focussing on this topic.

Reading
Reading books are checked daily. Please try to read with your child for 10 minutes every night and sign their Reading Champions record.
A number of our children struggle with comprehension. Try to ask a few questions about the story they have read to support them with this.
After every 10 reads your child will earn a 'Reading Champions' certificate and have their name on the newsletter.
