Our Week in Year 1

Year 1 have had another brilliant week!

In our Maths lessons this week, we have continued to secure our understanding of numbers up to 10, thinking about which words we can use to compare numbers. The children learnt lots of new vocabulary such as bigger than, more than, greater than, smaller than, less than, fewer than, the same amount as, equal to and as many as. It would be great if you could continue to use these words at home so that the children become more familiar with them.

In our English lessons, we started to look at what shared writing is and completed a piece together. As a whole group, we planned and wrote our own version of Gervase Phinn’s poem ‘Noises Off’ using sounds from the dining room. 

Ongoing home learning

Can I please ask that the children learn how to do their ties and top buttons over the course of the next week as these are the pieces of clothing which cause the most trouble to the children!

Additionally, can I ask that the children are encouraged to get ready as quickly as they possibly can at home as our PE lessons are currently being cut short by some time to allow for extra changing time.
