Dear Parents,
Today we have reviewed vocabulary learnt from the big book " The Underground Dance" (the book that we read yesterday). We have also reviewed grammar items learnt last year ( is/are/am + prepositions (along, under, through) + Capital letters ( for Proper nouns) ) . The class did classwork today after the review. There is NO homework today. Apart from Day One, when I wanted the children to reflect on their first day of school, there will NOT be homework this week and this weekend, so that the children can get back into the school momentum gradually after a long break, and will feel more positive about school this year. Homework will be issued on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays starting from next week and pupils will be given a period of two days to complete differentiated homework. This will allow pupils to be stretched according to their ability. Our Spelling is every Friday this year, and it will start next week. I have already issued the spelling list to them. This year, they will be having dictation (which we will read out to them) - based on the passage given in the spelling list, as well as Spelling of given words like last year.
Things to bring on 6 Jan
a) English Story book ( I am reminding them till end of this week regarding this item,as after the long break, they may have forgotten that it is a must to bring this daily. From next week onwards, this will be taken as a "given" and no more reminders will be issued.)
b) Creative Writing book ( This is a lined jotter book.)
c) Portfolio ( This is the same white portfolio file returned at end of last year. Please keep the P1 papers intact as this portfolio is a continuation from last year. The pupils are to keep this portfolio for 2 years. Please do not buy a new portfolio file.)
d) Foolscap paper - 3 sheets
e) Colour pencils
Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
Ow Yeong
