Dear All,
Another Friday, another week completed! Have a look at all of our learning we’ve got up to:
Maths
We have completed our first unit on place value (up to 20). We will begin addition and subtraction (up to 20) next week!
Aut.1.9 – Number lines
Aut.1.10 – Estimate on a number line
Aut.1.11 – Less than, greater than, equal to
Aut.1.12 – Compare numbers
Aut.1.13 – Order numbers
By using the manipulatives on the tuff trays and the application Sumdog, we have really pushed our learning. We have also got on our feet to create some human number lines!
Literacy
We have finished our story “Lost and Found”! The students really enjoyed it and were so excited to finally see the ending. It matched up well with our PSHE lessons on emotions. We sequenced the story and considered the different emotions the boy felt during his journey. Next week, they will plan their own versions of the story and how a different animal could create a very different situation – with very different feelings!
The students are progressing well with both their reading and writing. They are gradually getting more comfortable with the sounds and are applying them in their work. Well done!
IPC
After exploring all the 5 senses, we did a deep dive into just one this week – our sense of sight! We learned about the different parts of our eyes and how they can all look different. We put this knowledge to the test by recording the eye colours of not just our class, but Miss Staines’ as well!
This linked well with our digital literacy unit on photography. We learned the difference between landscape and portrait. After exploring the school to take more pictures, we thought about when it was best to do either style of picture.
Reminders!
Please return all books (Phonics RWI and Library) on Thursday – we will hand out a blue folder next week to help keep them separate. Homework can be returned anytime, but please bring their yellow folders back on Friday for next week’s RWI books and homework.
Thank you all for your support. Have a wonderful weekend 🙂
All the best,
Mr Browning
