Phonics
We deliver phonics through the DfE approved scheme Little Wandle https://www.littlewandlelettersandsounds.org.uk
For more information please see our phonics page.
Home learning
Your child will bring home a reading book matched to their phonic knowledge. Please practise reading together at least five times per week.
Your child will also bring home a 'real book' for you to enjoy with your child. Our 'Reading Scheme' books are designed to help children practise their sounds they learn in school, but 'real books' are sent home to encourage a love for reading! Children are not expected to read these books independently.
For more information please see our reading page.
Doodle maths login and assignments set most weeks.
Weekly spellings shared on Seesaw.
Online learning resources
Communication
If you would like to speak to one of the team you can pass on information at the door at the start and end of the day. Please be aware that this is a very busy time and staff need to ensure children are dropped-off and picked -up safely, if you need a longer chat with a member of the team it is best to email and make an appointment using the office email address enquiries@ststephensinf.org.uk
Home learning
Your child will bring home two 'Little Wandle' home learning sheets with activities to help you practise at home. The sheets contain learning from class from the previous week and the current week. Please practise regularly with your child. Continued repetition of saying the sound (phoneme) and recognising the letter (grapheme) will support your child in learning to read and support them to progress.
Your child will bring home a reading book matched to their phonic knowledge and a book to share with you. Please practise reading together at least five times per week.
For more information please see our reading page.
Gallery
We observed our faces carefully to draw our self-portraits.
We have been enjoying our Bristol Rovers PE skills sessions.
We have been learning about old toys. Kingswood Heritage Museum came to visit with lots of old toys for us to explore.
In term 2 we were learning about primary and secondary colours. We learnt to mix secondary colours. We then made some artwork inspired by Kandinsky.
