World Mental Health Day and More in 2AH!

World Mental Health Day

Today we have celebrated World Mental Health Day. We have taken some time throughout the day to discuss how this event links to the rights respecting school Article 24 and how our mental health and wellbeing is a priority. The children took part in activities such as mindfulness colouring, we read 'Find your Happy' by Emily Coxhead as part of 'read Manchester' and also had some independent mindful reading. The children recognised how it is important to share our feelings and what we can do to support our mental wellbeing. 

This week in English we have started reading 'The Disgusting Sandwich' and have been practicing instruction writing for our own recipes. The children have been using time connectives, adjectives and conjunctions in their writing and I am so proud of how much they are expressing their ideas in this topic. 

Please remember that we have pupil progress evening next Tuesday and Wednesday for families that have children across the key stages. If you have not yet booked your time slot, you can book an appointment using the online booking system through School Spider. You will need to login via our website by selecting ‘parent login’ on the top
bar of our site using the login you received via email or, via the School Spider app. If you are unable to login, please discuss with me on Friday and I can arrange your appointment.

Please also remember that the children's reading records are checked every day, the children should be reading every night at home and this should be logged in the reading record. The children's homework is due on a Friday when we also do our class spelling test. 

I am extremely proud of how the children are working this term and look forward to the exploring, creating, reading and writing we will be doing next week. 

Thank you for all of your support, 

Miss Hindle.
