Our topic this half term:
 

This half term our chosen topic is ‘We are artists’.  We will be exploring colour, mixing, developing our fine and gross motor control and finding out about famous artists. We will be exploring art in many different ways including drawing, painting, collage and mixed media. We will be working throughout the next six weeks to create our very own Art Gallery in the classroom. If your child creates something at home, please feel free to share any photos via the school office or they can bring in their creations to show and discuss with the class.

Reminders:

• Reading books will be changed every Monday and returned home on Tuesday.
• Library books will be changed every Thursday
• High Frequency Words will be changed and returned home every Friday.
• PE is on a Thursday - please send your child to school in their PE Kit and suitable footwear for outdoor sports. 
• Please ensure that all school uniform is clearly labelled with your child's name.  It is very difficult to find lost clothing if items are not named. 

We would love to hear and celebrate the great things the children do in and out of school. Please fill in a star to celebrate an achievement and send it in. The stars are outside the classroom, pinned next to the notice board.
