If you like the look of it, you will need to register online and then will have access to another tool to be able to support your child on their phonics journey in a fun and accessible way. The app can also be purchased for a one-off fee from the App Store or Google Play.
Please let us know what your child and yourselves thinks.
Many thanks - The EYFS & Key Stage 1 Team.
Class 2 joined in with a special, virtual, Friday assembly with Mrs Mason this morning. We all sat our smartest and listened to what Mrs Mason had to say to us all. Next Friday, Mrs Mason is looking for a Super Star learner from each class for next week's assembly.
We have also done some painting today and explored the school website and phonics games on the ipad. Please be aware that all Class Two pupils will be taking their phonics screening assessment before Christmas so please practice lots of reading at home and revising the sounds from the different Letters and Sound's phases. Teach Your Monster to Read would act as a good revision aid.
In Class 2 we have been doing lots of revision on place value, learning the value of tens and ones in two digit numbers. We have enjoyed playing games together on the interactive whiteboard and the children have asked to play them at home!

Good morning children! We can’t wait to see you this morning ready to start a new year at Smalley Richardson! Your teachers have been working so hard to get your classrooms ready for learning again! You will have lots of new rules to follow to help keep everyone safe but we know you can do it!
See you very soon,
from Mrs Mason and everyone at school
Thank you to everyone who has contributed to our 'Great Smalley Bake Off' posts over the last few weeks. It has been lovely to see all of your yummy creations and we definitely have some very talented bakers out there! Theo has been a consistent contestant throughout and has produced a wide variety of treats, fully deserving of a 'Star Baker' title. Well done Theo!
Have a lovely summer break everyone!
Hi Class 2,
Gosh, these are the last two days of term! How has that happened?
In keeping with our transition theme this week, today we'd love you to think about what makes you special. Believe us, you are all very special, wonderful children! What do you and your family think your own qualities are? Try recording them on the template of a person below and you can also decorate and collage it too using cut out pictures and your own drawings. For more details, please see the project below.

Hi Class 2,
Wow this week is going quickly! And it'll soon be the holiday!
We're concentrating on transition again as a result and today we'd love you to talk to your family about the friendships you've made this year. Who is important to you and why? Have a think about what you are most going to miss and then ask your family to help you draw around your hand on paper and carefully cut it out. Next, draw or write a good bye message to a friend, the class or your teachers.
For more details, please check out the project below and remember we'd love to see your work and hear your goodbyes :) We'll all miss you very much and we're sure you'll have lots to look forward to next year also.

Good Morning Class 2!
Today's transition activity focussing on thinking back over all you've done and achieved this year and reflecting on what makes you proud. What are your proudest achievements in your learning? What are you most proud of outside of the classroom too?
Have a think about what you're most proud of and design an achievement medal. You could cut a circle out of cardboard or have a star-shaped medal. Go to town with your decorations if you can - after all, you've earned this! You could paint it gold or use silver foil to make it shiny. If you have ribbons or string you could also wear your medal with pride and if hold a ceremony during which you're presented with your medal!
We'd love to hear how you get on! Well done on all of your achievements Class 2 - we're extremely proud of you all :)

Hi Year 2,
Welcome to the final week of term! Wow, where has the time gone? This week's project concentrates on transition and today we'd love you to create a 'Memory Jar' to help you cherish all your memories from this year forever! You could be super creative and decorate your jar and use different colours to show different types of memories. For example, you could use blue for friendship, yellow for teachers, red for favourite lessons and so on. You could include the school badge, drawings of your favourite moments and anything else to personalise your jar. For the finishing touches, try tying ribbons around your jar or gluing pictures around the outside. Please do share them with us and let us know what your favourite memories are!
If you'd like to get really creative with your decorations, watch this video for more ideas about how to decorate your jar:
