IMPORTANT INFORMATION

P.E

This half term, P.E is on a Friday afternoon.

Your child needs to keep their P.E kit in a clearly labelled P.E bag in school every day.

We will send it home at the end of each half term.

They will need:

White t-shirt, black shorts/pants/leggings and a pair of black P.E pumps.

Reading Books:

We have a reading programme in school called 'Accelerated Reader'. Your child will quiz on each book they read. We will be quizzing every THURSDAY and books will be returned on a Friday. It is important that you read with your child every night.

If your child is finding a story easy, please ask them lots of comprehension questions to ensure they understand the book they are reading. Questions can include:

Who are the characters?
What role does ______ have in the story?
Where is the story set?
What happens at the beginning?
What happens in the middle?
What happens at the end of the story?
Can you tell me your favourite part of the story?
Did you like or dislike the story?
Can you find my a word beginning with _____?
Can you find a word with the ____ sound?

PHONICS

In class, your child is being taught Phase 5 Phonics. They will take a Phonics Screening Check in June 2019. The check consists of 40 real and pseudo (alien) words and it is to test your child's blending skills. Please practice reading the sound mats below as much as possible. Whilst your child is reading their home school reading book, you can help them to break down the sounds and blend the word together to read.

Homework:

Homework will be sent out on a Friday and it needs to be completed and returned to school by Tuesday.

Book Bags & Uniform:

Please make sure your child brings a book bag to school everyday. It will help them to carry their homework and reading books. Children will be told to put any important letters or notices inside their book bags so please make sure you check them regularly.

Please ensure that your child's uniform is clearly labelled to avoid loss of belongings. We encourage children to put jumpers in their trays to keep them safe. When the weather is bad, make sure your child has a waterproof coat with a hood and suitable footwear.

OUR LEARNING:

World Book Day 2019

Pancake Day!

Year 1 had a wonderful trip to Blackpool Zoo! We saw lots of different animals (some smellier than others!!) and we all loved seeing the baby gorilla and the sea lion show!

More weather updates!

Weather Reporters!

Today the children became weather reporters! We have been learning lots about the weather this half term and began writing our own recount of a storm! We decided to really get into the character, we had to become a weather reporter!!! It was so much fun, and all the children showed brilliant courage and determination.

We have been learning about missing number problems in Maths. To help find the answer, the children have been using a 'part whole model'. Today we used hoops and tennis balls to show our working out! It was great learning fun!!

This half term, we have been learning all about space! We decided to help us to understand the different planets more, we would make our own solar system! It was great fun creating the different planets.

2 Times Table! The children have been using this song to help them learn their 2 times table!

Lest We Forget.

We have been practicing our addition and subtraction skills! We are becoming more fluent at this and the children have even been making up their own sums for Miss Holt to answer!

2nd October 2018 - We enjoyed our trip to the woods today! We looked at the different types of tree's, flowers and talked about the changes we could see happening. The children were excited to look for woodland creatures and loved taking their learning outdoors.

24th September 2018 - This week we are looking at number bonds to 5. We are really enjoying making 5 in different ways and learning to record our sums and answers!

Look at how big our magical seed grew in just 7 days!! We couldn't wait to look at everyones and talk about the changes we could see. We even did some observational drawings of our plants. I hope those beans don't turn into beanstalks when the children take them home....

Wednesday 19th September - The day the teddy bears came for a picnic with 1H! We made our own chocolate teddy sandwiches and listened to a story with our teddies. It was great fun
