Year 1 we 27th April
Hi All,
In English time this week we will be continuing with our work on stories with repeating patterns. This week the children are going to create their own stories. We have stories like the talking bananas and talking apples forming in our brains!! If you would like ideas of how to support your child’s learning – ask your child about their own story plan. Can they tell you the main character and who this characters meets along their travels. Also what strange unsettling things speak to them and set them off – AAAAAaaargh!!
In maths we will be continuing our work on place value with numbers to 100. We have started counting in 5’s (we call them cat numbers – the action is like ‘a cat marking time’. - If you would like to support your child’s learning with this – rehearse counting in 5s with them, maybe bouncing on a trampoline or jumping (jut to make it more active) Or write the sequence together and ask the children if they can see any patterns?
In the afternoons the children will be looking at Judaism in R.E. on Monday. The children will be continuing to work on creating their own portraits in art. In science the children will be exploring the world of plants.
