Welcome to Miss Mansfield's Class
Follow @ChristChurch_Sc on twitter for the latest news and updates.
We are a mixed class of Year 1 and Year 2 children.
We are taught by Miss Mansfield and Mrs Standring.
Miss Hardiker and Mrs Barrow also work with us.
We have PE on Mondays and Wednesdays.
For both days, please ensure the correct kit is in school.
Reading books should be brought in to school every day and for spellings, your child will be given the following week's spelling rule every Friday. This will also be set on Spelling Shed. Please encourage your child to practise every week. https://play.edshed.com/en-gb

Useful resources
Please find below some helpful resources that you may use with your child at home.
Year 1 & 2 Common Exception Words
These are words that cannot be sounded out phonetically and children need to be able to read and spell off by heart.
You can also log onto Spelling shed to practice spellings with the new sound / rule that they are learning.
This is a technique your child will be learning at school to help them move onto joined up writing as they get older. Each letter stars with a 'flick from the left'. Look at the Powerpoint below if you need any help with this.
Handwriting Powerpoint
By the end of year 2, children should know their 2s, 5s, 10s and 3s. You could print these to use at home with your child. Likewise, remember to log into your child's TT Rockstars account and practice there!
