Year 1
Weekly Update Thursday 28th March 2024
Summary of this week:
|
Our learning next week:
After Easter we will continue with Science, Computing, History, Art, PSHE, PE and Music foundation lessons. |
Homework:
Reading record books- Please try and fill in the reading record so we can see how much your child is reading (just the book name and an adult initial). When your child has read these books a minimum of 3 times, they can change their books in class. Please can reading records be brought into school every day.
Spellings- The weekly spelling books will be sent home on a Monday and need to be returned to school on the following Monday, for new spellings to be added.
Please continue to practise counting forwards and backwards from any given number within 40. Please also continue to practise counting in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s. |
Notices & Reminders:
Brooklands Museum trip Friday 19th April- Please remember to cancel your child’s lunch on this day and send your child to school with a packed lunch. Thanks.
After Easter, we will be starting swimming. Please label all your child’s swimming things so their belongings do not go missing. Please also refer to the swimming timetable for your child’s swimming day. Thursday will be our usual PE day with sports coaches as normal. Please could children come to school in their PE kits. The children will be learning about striking and fielding.
Please ensure all children bring a named coat to school. Children can bring a pair of wellies and leave them in their cloakroom to use. Please be reminded we will be completing forest school on Tuesdays therefore Wellies and waterproof clothes are essential.
A lot of children have been coming into school with toys to play with. As a year group we have decided we will not be allowing toys to be brought into school. This is for several reasons. Children's belonging are getting damaged, completely broken, or lost which leads to distress which can be avoided.
Please ensure your child comes to school with a water bottle (water only, not squash) and a healthy snack (school fruit is available). |

If you have an iPad please upload PocketPhonic Stories. This is an app that is excellent for teaching handwriting, phonics and reading. You will need to log in for your child but then they should be able to complete these on their own. There are certificates you can print off to motivate your child.
