Welcome back to a new half term. We hope you all had a restful week off and are ready to learn!
We have some exciting things ready for you to learn!
We are really lucky in Willow class to have lots of adults to care for us and help us to learn.

Pathways to Write
This half term we are reading poetry and looking at the book Im Going To Eat This Ant. The children will explore our school forest, pond and wildlife area looking for minibeasts. We will investigate their favourite places to live and hide. We will look at the different ways the minibeasts move and learn the vocabulary to describe their movements. We will be practising our emergent writing and using our phonics skills to write labels, captions and sentences.
PE
Our PE day is Thursday. Due to our current provision in school, please ensure that your child comes into school dressed in their PE kit. We do PE outside so it is really important that your child is dressed appropriately for the weather.
Reading.
At Westfield, we expect all children to complete five reading sessions a week at home. These should be recorded in your child's reading diary so we know that they have read. Your child will receive dojo's each time they complete a reading session at home. At school we teach the children to read high frequency words. We have given you a set of these words to consolidate learning at home.
Please ensure your child has their reading diary in school each day.
Online Learning.
Our children have access to a range of online resources to aid their learning. Here are the links to some useful websites that the children can use. Your child's passwords for the sites are stuck into their reading diary. If you need any support please ask a member of the EYFS Team.

Covid-19 Bubble Closure
In the event of our bubble having to close, Miss Carney will provide remote learning through Google Classroom. Every child has been given their own Gmail address. They are able to log onto our online classroom using these details.
It is a requirement that children access our remote learning platform on the days that they would usually attend school. It is important that good communication between school and parents/carers maintains during a bubble closure.
If you have any questions, please contact the school office.
Alternatively, you can contact Miss Carney directly via her school email -misscarney@westfieldprimaryschool.com
Thankyou for your continued support.
