Hello and welcome to Year 1!

I (Miss Kelly) am so excited to be teaching you all this year. Myself, Miss Burns and Miss Clough cannot wait for all of the exciting things we have planned.

Our main priority is to make sure that you all have a wonderful time in Year 1 and make lots of progress with your learning.

We will be adding all of our amazing learning to this page over the half-term so please keep checking!

For parents/carers, we operate an open door policy and we are available at the end of each day. Alternatively, please get in touch by calling the office or sending a message on Class Dojo and we will respond as soon as we can.

 

Useful Information

PE –This half term, Year 1’s PE day is a Wednesday. All children are expected to have their PE kit in school for these sessions.

Reading books – Reading books and diaries should be in school every day. These will be checked every morning. Please encourage your child to read at least 3 times a week as it helps in all aspects of their learning.

Learning logs – Homework is set each week for children to complete. It can be completed in learning log books or photos and videos of homework tasks can be sent on your child’s portfolio on Class Dojo. Children are awarded Dojo points for tasks that have been completed

Behaviour – We ask that children follow the 3 simple rules of READY, RESPECTFUL and SAFE. If your child displays these consistently, they will receive a recognition award. If three or more are given in one week, their names will be mentioned in assembly.

Our Learning:

We explored our school grounds and observed different wild plants, using our knowledge to label the roots, stem, leaves and flowers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DT

This half term, we are focussing on structures. So far, we have used different materials to build towers, making sure they balance and have a strong, wide base. We will soon be using different attachment techniques to build our very own tower!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PE

In our dance unit, we are exploring the different characters in the story of The Three Little Pigs. We are using our knowledge of travel, jumps, gesture and expression to create a sequence retelling the story.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enrichment

We used our knowledge of instructions to sequence the steps correctly and make chocolate rice crispy cakes. They were delicious!
