Creature Comforts

Where do the footprints lead?

Our Context for the Summer Term is Creature Comforts.  In History we will be learning about dinosaurs and the palaeontologist Mary Anning. In Science, we will learn about animals large and small. In Art, the children will be designing and then creating their own animal prints. Our RE for this term will look at how and why people celebrate and in PSHE, we will be looking at personal hygiene and understanding money and why it is necessary.

Homework

Every Friday, the children will have  homework stuck into their homework book.

This homework will have their spellings on, along with an indication of which maths facts they should practise. Please do this ready for Thursday.

Maths test = Thursday

Spellings test = Thursday

Please hand your homework book back in on a Thursday, to get next week's homework stuck in. Homework is given out on Fridays.

Please share a book for pleasure everyday, use Collin's E books or complete a book on Reading Eggs to help your child practise their reading.

PE

Year 1 have PE on a Wednesday and Thursday.

Please come in wearing full PE kit on these days. 

Year 1 pick up and drop off times

Year one can enter the classroom from 8:40-8:50. 

Pick up is at 3:20 from outside the classroom.  

Teachers must close doors at 8.50am in order to do the registers and transition children to begin important Phonics learning at 9am. Whilst we have an open door policy, in-depth conversations cannot be had in the morning, as it delays vital learning for all children. Parents are encouraged to make appointments for important conversations or wait until after all children have been collected, at the end of the day to have any necessary conversations with teachers.  Thank you.

Please remember our Curriculum Meeting is in school on Wednesday 11th September 2024 at 2.30pm. We hope to see lots of parents there.

Thank you to all those parents who made it to our Curriculum meeting today. Below , we've attached the Power point slides.

YEAR 1 INSPIRE WORKSHOP- Wednesday 25th September 2024 ( 9-10am)

All parents are invited into school at 9am (for a hour) on Weds 25th Sept 2024 for our Inspire workshop. We hope all children can have an adult to support them- uncles, aunts, grandparents, older siblings, god parents, family friends are all welcome, if you are unable to get the time off.
