What we are learning this half term:
In English this term we are looking at narratives through fairy tales. We will continue to sequence our sentences to form our very own fairy tales.
In Maths we are going to continue consolidating our knowledge of place value and number facts. We will also explore fractions and time.
In other areas, we are going to be weaving in Art and exploring the four countries of the UK in Geography.
Our Learning this week:
What a fantastic first week back! In Year 1, we have been exploring number patterns in maths looking at odd and evens. In Geography, we started our new topic of exploring the UK and its countries. On Friday, we had a visit from prayer spaces where we completed different activities around being thankful and loving.
Look at what we have been up to!
Dear Parents/Carers,
Please find an information video which has been put together on how you can support your child with learning to spell. These strategies can be used during as well as post Lockdown to inspire your child to learn their spellings and retain them.
I have also added a crib sheet of the strategies presented in the video as well as some additional strategies which aren't mentioned in the video.
I hope you find it useful.
