Week ending 24th May 2019

Hello Year One,


The children enjoyed a fun afternoon yesterday, as they all took part in a painting activity, water play and chalk drawings outside.


This week they have learned about 'twice as many' in maths. They counted objects and found twice as many, we measured items and found others twice as long and the children were able to record this pictorially.


We read 'Anancy and Mr Dry-Bone' by Fiona French and the children wrote their own stories about two suitors wanting to marry someone. We had some funny tales, as they used their friends as characters in their stories.


I am sure you have all heard about 'Brody' the dinosaur as this caused great excitement. The children wrote 'wanted' posters to try to locate 'Brody'. Many children explained that they were there when the police caught the dinosaur and some  of the children's parents had to help!


I am sending a booklet home so that the children can practice their phonics during the holiday.


I will post another blog during the holidays to let you know the topics and concepts we will be working on next half-term.


I hope you all have an enjoyable break and I am looking forward to seeing you all on Monday 3rd June.


Ms Davis
