Every week we encourage parents to support their children to learn and use new vocabulary. In school we will be exploring the origin of new words, what they mean and how to use them effectively in context. If you can encourage your child to use these words it would be really helpful! Kittens: snap & catch Squirrels: healthy & balanced diet Woodpeckers: nutrition & balanced diet Foxes: figurative & surreal Our Value this half term is 'Courage' |
