  • Welcome to Year 1!

    The adults in our class are:

    Mrs Bond and Mrs Trillow

    Our week:

    Another week has flown by! We have been covering nearly our full timetable this week, so we have been super busy :) 

    Unfortunately we didn't have time to get to the school library this week, so we will be sure to do that next week! In the meantime, any book from home can be used to contribute to the 'Reading Routes' ticket - these can be shared books and do not have to be read independently. Please only note down one book per night, this can either be written in the reading record or marked straight onto the ticket. 

    Phonics books will be changed Monday and Thursday, please be sure to note down the 3 times you have read the book so we know it needs to be changed :) these books should be read independently.

    Maths:

    This week we have continued our unit ‘place value to 10’. The children have been using number tracks to find missing numbers when counting forwards to 10 and backwards from 10. They also started looking at finding one more within 10.

    English:

    We have jumped straight into our 'Beach Bag' writing this week, writing 2 sentences already! We came up with actions to help us remember our sentences when writing, then used our best effort to focus on handwriting and finger spaces. Our sentences were - 'I can pack a red net.' and 'I can pack a green bucket.'

    Big Picture – DT:

    We started our Dt unit this week, we are all very excited to make a sandwich soon! This week we focused on healthy foods and balanced meals (all very sad that chocolate and ice cream isn't recommended for every meal!). We tried some tomato, lettuce and cucumber to discuss tates and textures we liked/disliked.

    Science:

    We recapped our learning about the four seasons, and completed our weather chart for the week.

    PSHE/P4C:

    In PSHE this week we explored the concept of 'taking notice'. We listened to a variety of different music pieces and discussed how they made us feel. We then got up to move our bodies to the different pieces of music which caused lots of giggles!

    PE days:

    Monday and Wednesday.
