 Guided Reading

Our Guided Reading text for the Autumn Term is the beautifully written and gripping novel 'Rooftoppers' by Katherine Rundell.  We will also be teading the Firework-Makers Daughter by Phillip Pullman. 

 

Reading:

Everyone in Cedar Class will be given a reading bookmark and a reading book to read every evening. The children will also have lots of opportunities to read and enjoy books throughout the week at school.

 

PE Days

Our PE days over Term 1 and 2 are Tuesday and Thursday. These lessons will be outside (weather permitting) so please bring in an appropriate PE kit on both of those days. 

 

Snack:

Please could you ensure that your child has a small, healthy snack for snack time. They could bring in a piece of fresh or dried fruit, or vegetables (e.g. carrot sticks, cucumber etc). Please also remember that nuts are not allowed in school due to allergies. Thank you! 

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us on our class email: cedar@bellefield.wilts.sch.uk
