What a great week we have had! All the children are really settled and are starting to get into the swing of things in Year 1. Their independent writing is improving in each lesson and their handwriting is developing with lots of reminders about correct letter formation. The PDF below will help to explain the letter families. In English this week, we have shared the book 'Dinosaurs love Underpants' by Clare Freedman and Ben Cort. The children have enjoyed retelling the story

Another exciting week for the children! We have shared the book Tyrannosaurus Drip by Julia Donaldson. The story teaches us about being kind, including others and accepting that everyone is different. It follows a little dinosaur who is made fun of and left out because he is different. We talked about how it is important to be kind to others and speak up if someone is being unkind. In maths we have explored one more and one less than numbers within 10. Next week we will compa

A great first full week back, everyone has made an excellent start to Year 1! This week we have enjoyed the story 'The Dinosaur who Pooped a Planet' by Tom Fletcher and Dougie Pointer whom many of you may recognise from McFly! It's an hilarious book about a boy and his pet dinosaur who get stuck in Space. In maths we are continuing to work with numbers within 10. We have been learning to read and spell the number words one to ten: eight is really tricky! Mr Jones has begun to

What a fantastic start to your year in Chestnut Class! We were all a bit nervous this morning, however, I was really impressed with how they have settled in and how they are getting used to the new routines and increased independence - well done! We have already started out maths learning about Place Value within 10. The pupils will be learning different ways to build all the numbers up to 10 and to know one less and one more. After lots of discussion about our favourite choc

We've had an amazing week! It was wonderful to see so many of you at Sports Day. The children loved sharing their day with you, thank you! This week's book was about a little boy who is quiet during the day but transforms into a Midnight Superhero. He tames lions, rescues ships, retrieves stolen crown jewels, and saves the world with his meteor-blasting rocket launcher! Is he really a Midnight Superhero... or is it all a dream? The children have composed a letter for thei

What a scorcher this week has been! The children have all been very sensible in trying to stay cool. We have had lots of water breaks and stayed in the shade as much as possible. We have been learning to tell the time to the hour and half past the hour. The children understand that the long hand is the minute hand, while the short hand indicates the hour. Please assist your child in practising their new skill of telling the time using o'clock and half past. Everyone has enjoy

What a busy and exciting week we have had! On Monday, all of the children took part in the Phonics Screening Check. I am incredibly proud of the fantastic progress they have made in phonics this year. They approached the challenge with confidence and enthusiasm—well done, everyone!
