In Phonics, we will be learning to read and write words containing the ‘ie’ digraph (such as pie, tie and fried). We will also be reading the words ‘oh’ and ‘their’ and writing the words ‘come’ and ‘some’.

In Maths, we will continue to learn about addition. This week we will be investigating number bonds to 10, adding amounts together and adding more on.

Willow class will continue to have PE on Tuesday and Thursday this term. Please make sure your child has their PE kit in school on those days.

In our Computing lesson, we will be using the keyboard and mouse to create a picture and some text.
