This week in Year 1...

This week we had a scooter afternoon with Jonathan. The children thoroughly enjoyed this and it was good to see them brushing up on their skills of manoeuvring around cones.

This week in Literacy some of the children have been building on their stories from the John Burningham book The Magic Bed. They have been working on making sentences more interesting by adding adjectives, exclamation marks and even speech marks!

In Maths we have been learning how to use our maths skills to work out investigations. This was quite difficult at the beginning of the week but now I think Year 1 are understanding these word problems.

We will have no spellings tomorrow as next week is our Science/ Art week. But please do keep on practising the sounds the children have learnt at home and reading lots as all of this helps the children be able to break down words and spell.

I look forward to seeing all of the entries to the Art competition. Please remember to bring them in on Friday the 19th.
