Activities for children accessing their learning from home will all be on Teams. Please be aware that this is only for the children at home, as the children in school will be completing the same learning.

Spelling Tests
We are moving away from formal spelling tests in Pimhill and Haughmond, and will instead be working on the application of correct spellings in written work. However, if you would like to continue to work on spellings with your child at home, the below attachments are the common exception words for Year One and Year Two. These are sometimes referred to as ‘tricky words’ as they do not follow the spelling patterns that children learn in Key Stage One.
Homework – 17.9.2021
This week I have uploaded some activities related to the Place Value learning we have been doing in maths. To access the activities you need to use the Twinkl Go website at https://www.twinkl.co.uk/go and enter the access code WS4627. There is a representation activity and then two quizzes: Place Value within 50 for Year 1 and Place Value within 100 for Year 2, although you can do both if you want to!
Homework – 10th September 2021
This week I would like you to re-familiarise yourselves with Reading Eggs. Spend some time exploring the site, playing some games, and if it says you need to complete a placement test, please do that. If you don’t have your login details anymore, let me know and I will print them off again.
If you would like something else to do, you could carry out the same investigation as we did with the trees in Science. Remember you need to put a white sheet or similar underneath the branches before you shake them so you can see what falls out.
Remember to keep up with your daily reading and practising your spelling words.

Haughmond New Year Information!
Welcome back to a brand new year!
This term we are going to be focusing on a History topic, called Fire! Fire! We will be learning all about The Great Fire of London and The Gunpowder Plot.
Here is some useful information for the term ahead:
PE sessions this term are on a Wednesday and Thursday. Starting from the week beginning 6th September please could you come to school in your P.E. kit on those days.
Spellings are tested each Tuesday morning, which is is also when the new ones are handed out. Please make sure spelling books are in school everyday.
Homework is given out on a Friday, and is due in the following Friday morning. This term homework will typically be based online and you will be able to find the information both on Teams and on here.
As well as the weekly homework, please remember to read regularly at home, along with practising your spellings, and if you are in Year Two, learning your 2, 5 and 10 times tables.
Thank you,
Mrs Gregory
The Animal Man
Today Haughmond had a fantastic morning! Simon Airey, the Animal Man, came to visit us to teach us more about our Science topic. We had a brilliant time seeing and handling lots animals from different animal groups and learning facts about them.
Home Learning
Good morning Haughmond and Happy New Year!
Last night I e-mailed each of you your usernames and passwords for Microsoft Teams. If you haven’t done already you can either download this as an App or just access it online.
Each day this is where I will be putting your learning, and also where we will be able to have some meetings as a class. All of the adults who work in Haughmond will be using our class Team too, so we will all be there to help you with what you are doing.
See you on Teams!
Mrs G.
