Year 1 - Autumn 2 - Week 1

Date: 6th Nov 2022 @ 4:13pm

It truly was a fantastic first week back full of excitement!

We started our new topic in Maths, Addition and Subtraction using part, part whole models to create number sentences. We loved using kung-fu to help us remember our symbols such as the plus sign and equals to sign, watch this space! Next week, we will continue to work on creating number sentences using practical resources.

This week in Phonics, we looked at non-fiction texts learning about a range of things such as bikes and hens! Next week, we will start reading fictions texts again.

In Art, we created our own firework art by finger painting. For this, we had to mix the primary colours to make secondary colours. We also started looking at our nee topic on buildings identifying different shapes and recognising how they fit together.

The highlight of our week has got to be performing for the Kindness video, we have bust a move and danced our way through the week. It has been truly wonderful to see the smiles on the children’s faces and the laughter we have all shared. Keep smiling Year 1.

Reminders:

• Year 1 PE lessons continue to be on a Wednesday and Thursday.
• Please ensure that your child returns their reading books each week either on a Thursday or Friday morning.
• A letter will be shared over the next few days about the Phonics workshop next Wednesday.
