Year One - Week Commencing 10th February 2020

Date: 14th Feb 2020 @ 7:35pm

It's been such a great half term!  Thank you all for welcoming Mrs Warren.  She's such a positive addition to our team.

We had a great week this week.  We have written a letter from a character in the Hermelin story explaining how to find their lost item and warning them to prevent it happening again.  The children did a great job!  They are excellent at writing instructions using First, Next, After that and Finally, and they know how to start and end a letter.  

We made a wormery in this week for DT to complete our science minibeast topic.  We decided that we may do it differently another time, by making layers of sand and soil equal.  Some children said they would like to make one at home during the holidays.

It was internet safety week this week so we had an assembly on this and a lesson about keeping our identity safe online.  The children took their online profile's home.  We also had discussions about personal space and watched The Personal Space song by Samsung Kids on Youtube.    

We continued subtracting within 20 for maths.  Please encourage your children to play TopMarks and choose number bonds to 10 and 20 over the holidays.   The children have been using inequality symbols for greater than, less than and equals today and are great at this!

Finally, we have started joined up writing in handwriting!

Thank you for your support this half term.  I hope you all have a lovely holiday.

Mrs Baddeley
