Spotlight on language and grammar:
This week our focus is on HOMONYMS. These are words that have the same sound but are spelled differently e.g. bawl and ball, heir and air, tears and tiers.

Could parents and carers spare ten minutes or more per night to support the work that the children are doing in school.

Statements to live by:

Over the next few weeks the children will be working together to understand their uniqueness as made in the image of God and develop self awareness, positive self-esteem and confidence.

Please take the opportunity to discuss with your child at home and support them in this week’s aim of taking care to keep safe and healthy.

I can tell you how I can look after myself
