Wren Class wc 29th June – Wicklewood Primary School and Nursery

Week Beginning: 29^th June 2020

Hello Wonderful Wrens,

What a hot week it was last week. I hope you all had your paddling pools out and you could cool down in the shade!

We hope you enjoyed Supertato. We loved seeing all the new Supertatoes that you created … they were all different and all super! What amazing adventures they all had too!

This week we are doing another traditional tale. It may be one that you are less sure of. If you have your own copies of ‘The Three Billy Goats Gruff’ at home, make sure you read it together with your family to see if your version differs from the one you watch on Monday.

Take care and have fun.

Mrs Leaford and Mrs Nixon 😊

For the last few weeks of the year we are going to focus on some key activities for our daily phonics lessons. We believe that these activities will really help your child to prepare for the move to year 1 in September.

The daily Read, Write, Inc. lessons are still available to watch at the website below.
