Thank you to those of you who have emailed to tell us what your child is doing at home. These are a fantastic snapshot of what your child can do and really do inform our assessments.
Here are some example emails that we have received (names have been changed) that have been really informative for our assessments.
The email above tells us:
- Craig can recognise the dice and match the correct amount of objects to the numeral
- Craig can make meaningful marks when representing numbers
- Craig can concentrate for a long period of time, take turns and enjoys praise
This information about Craig really informs our assessment.
The email above tells us:
- Sophie can recognise and write the sounds we have been learning
- Sophie can concentrate for a long period of time and can keep on trying
- Sophie is making links with her learning at school and home
- The language Sophie uses at home – speech directly from the child is very useful! Even if the pronunciation or tense is incorrect, it’s really helpful to know exactly what your child has said
This information about Sophie also really informs our assessment.
We’re really looking forward to getting emails over Christmas about your child’s holiday and we hope this information has been useful.
