  3. Coming into school On dry days: Year one line up in the Junior yard and are taken into class by the teacher. We want your children to gain independence and so ask that you leave your children at the yard and do not come into the cloakroom or classroom unless you need to speak to the teacher. On wet days: Miss Martell’s Class Please wait with your children in the cloakroom in between year one and two classrooms. Mrs Evans class Please wait with your children on the covered patio area outside the classroom.

  4. If you are late… • Please take your child to the office to sign in. Your child will then be taken to their classroom. • If you need to collect your child early from school, for doctors appointments etc, please go to the office first as you will need to sign them out.

  5. Uniform • Uniform can be obtained on a Monday after school and collected from Miss Amanda John. • Please make sure that all uniform is named. • Please make sure your child has a coat every day.

  6. Muddy Monday and Forest Fridays! • Mrs Evans class is Muddy Monday • Miss Martell’s class is Forest Friday • Your child must wear appropriate clothing/footwear on these days. Please make sure your children have coats. • Wellington boots can be kept in school if you would prefer.

  8. Reading Miss Martell’s reading day is Tuesday Mrs Evans reading day is Thursday All Books and reading records to be sent in to school on this day.

  9. Reading in school at and home.. Whatever your child’s level of reading it is incredibly important that you read with your child every day. What do we do? Jolly Phonics/Grammar/Spelling • Jolly Phonics are a way of helping your children to hear the sounds that make up words, using actions and rhymes to help them remember. These include the sounds of the letters in the alphabet but sometimes more importantly double sounds such as ‘ou’ or ‘ie’, ‘qu’ etc to help them process words more easily when they are reading. They will be able to blend these sounds more easily and become more fluent readers. • http://www.jollylearning.co.uk

  10. Listening to readers We listen to readers on our reading days to keep an eye on progress and any comments you make in those reading records are also really helpful. • Our reading scheme helps children to feel comfortable within a level before progressing to more challenging books or activities. • We include non fiction as well as fiction to show diversity in literature. • Reading every day with your child will make a huge difference to their progress. Regular practise makes perfect!

  11. Handwriting At Cwmrhydyceirw we use cursive hand writing. Practising forming letters using the cursive style means that progression into joined up writing is that much easier.
