This week in Maths, Class 1 have started learning to count in groups of 2s and 5s. In our lessons, children have been making groups of 2 and 5 and then counting how many are in each group. Children have had lots of practical lessons to support their understanding with this. Well done on all working  so hard Class 1.

Spring 1 Week 6

Stars of the Week: LJ and Sienna

We’ve had a great last week of term in Class 1. Children have been working really hard with their writing, phonics and foundation subjects. Class 1 had a wonderful time celebrating History Day yesterday and we had a range of outfits in class- such as Victorian maids, Dodger, soldiers and many more. Well done on making such a great effort Class 1. Wishing you all a lovely half term break.

Stars of the week: Ella and Summer

We have really been trying hard with our handwriting this week. Lots of children are doing really well with remembering capital letters, finger spaces and full stops in sentences. In Class 1 we work hard on ensuring all our letters are sitting on the line and facing the correct way.

Spring 1 Week 4

Stars of the week: Christine and Alyssa

This week in Science, we have been looking at the properties of materials. We looked at lots of different objects made from materials such as glass, rubber, wood, fabric and metal. We then used words like stretchy, see- through, waterproof, hard and soft to describe the properties. We had a very fun lesson!

This week in Computing, Class 1 have been looking at coding with beebots. In pairs, children discussed what instructions they would give to the Beebot, then pressed the correct buttons and entered the instructions. It was a very fun lesson, well done Class 1.

Spellings

Dear Parents and Carers,

Your child will have a spelling test every Monday. Please make sure spelling books are brought in each Monday in preparation for this. Children will get a new set of spellings each week, these will be stuck into their spelling books. Please do not practice the spellings in the green books, these are just for the new words and for spelling tests. 

I will upload the spelling words each week, incase children lose their spellings.

Any questions, please come and ask Mrs Copeland or Margaret.
