Welcome to Year 1!

Happy half term! Hope you all enjoy the sunshine :) 

Our phonics assessments will start the week commencing 8th June, please keep reading and practicing phonics (words to practise can be found in the section 'helpful information')!!

 

Maths:

This week we completed our fractions unit by looking at quarters.

 

Writing:

We finished  our book 'The Little Elves' this week. There has been some amazing handwriting in this book :)

 

Reading:

'Hotel Flamingo' was such a hit, we are reading the second book! This one is called 'Hotel Flamingo - Holiday Heatwave'. The hotel found out who had been sabotaging the royal visit, and all worked out well in the end!

 

Big Picture:

This week we learned the note G and the song 'hot cross buns'. We performed this in groups to foundation and year 2 - videos on the pictures page!

 

Science:

This week we thought about germs and how they spread. We set up an experiment using bread: one touched with dirty hands and one touched with clean hands. We will look at the results after half term!!

 

RE and PSHE/P4C:

In PSHE this week we learned about marriage and what a wedding can look like.

In RE, we journaled around a scripture from the Torah and explored links between Shabbat and the Shema.

PE days:

Monday and Wednesday.
