Mundford Junctions

Our Mundford Junctions give you an opportunity to see how we teach different parts of the curriculum and helps you to get involved in the children’s learning. Our first Junction of the year was focusing on phonics. Here are the resources and powerpoint that we used during that junction.

Hazel Bear

We have a class teddy bear called Hazel Bear. Hazel Bear likes to visit the homes of all the children in the class. The children will take it in turns to bring home Hazel Bear. Keep it at your home for a few days and see what fun you can have! When you have finished your adventures with Hazel Bear, you can help your child to write a few sentences in its special book about what you have done. You could take some pictures of what you get up to and stick them in with your writing. When Hazel Bear is brought back to school, your child will have the chance to share their sentences and pictures with the rest of the children in the class.

Homework expectations

Reading– This is the main focus of what we would like you to do at home. We encourage you to hear your child read daily if you can. Regular reading will help your child to remember the tricky words and new phoneme they have been learning.

Numbots- This is a website where children can practise their maths skills while playing a game. Children can play the game at home to help with their maths. We will give out certificates at the end of each week for those that have achieved a new level or have worked hard to improve their accuracy. I will send out their log in details this week, in case you have misplaced them.

Homework books- Children will bring home a homework book. Each Friday, children will be given either a piece of Maths or English work to complete. Please can this be handed in by the following Friday.

The Big Question- I will set a question at the beginning of each half term. The children can answer this question in any way they like (art work, drawings, writing etc). This work should be handed it at the end of the half term.
