Class 1 have been very busy this last week.

Read Write Inc:

The children have continued to revise all of Set 1 and Set 2 sounds/words  and learn Set 3 sounds/words.  Over the week we have sent home the story words and ditties for you to practise at home.  We have also looked at

are/air  (care and share / That’s not fair)

ow / o-e   (Blow the snow / Phone home)

Set-1-Sounds   

green words 1

set_2_sounds

green words 2

set_3_sounds

green words 3

The children have used their phonics knowledge to write sentences using words with these sounds.  Some children have also made a Wanted poster for one of the characters from their group Story Book  – Black Hat Bob.

Maths

We have concentrated on understanding the parts of numbers to 10 and what a teen number is (tens and ones).  The children have used a variety of resources to help them show and explain their reasoning.

Here is a lovely 10 frame activity to play (the fill option)  https://www.nctm.org/Classroom-Resources/Illuminations/Interactives/Ten-Frame/

Literacy 

We have enjoyed the story Rumble in the Jungle – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRplFz5SGz0

We have moved like the animals in the story and discussed what our favourites are.  Next week we will research and write about our favourite animal/s.

Understanding the World/RE

Over the last few weeks we have been learning about the celebration of Wesak (Budda’s birthday).   The children have talked about how we treat each other and linked this to our whole school theme of Kindness. To find out more: https://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/watch/lets-celebrate-wesak

P.E.

We have used our P.E. slots to practise for Sports Day, more information will be sent out soon about the team your child is in and colour t- shirt that your child will need.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend  🙂

This week the children have continued to revise and use the sounds taught over the year.

Our focus sounds were:

i-e – a nice smile

igh – fly high

Thank you for feeding back on how your child is getting on with reading their ditties and group book words.  We have enjoyed reading some of the sentences children have written at home and shared on Tapestry.

This week we have concentrated on the sounds:

oi – spoil the boy

oy – toy for the boy

The children have continued to practise sounds from set 1 and 2.

You will have noticed as well as bringing home a school reading book the children have also brought home words that are linked to their group text.  These are for you to practise with your child and also give your child an opportunity to discuss the ditty or story they are doing in class.
