Year 1 Learning. Term 3, Week 4.

Well done to all those who were able to take part in our Active Travel Week last week. Miss Aviss has the lists of children who collected their 5 stars and the certificates will be given out on Friday of this week. Well done. So many children were able to take part and to talk about why it was so important.

Noticeboard

  • You will find below a grid showing the sessions to be taught each week. They do not exactly follow days as each class has different sessions due to support and PE times being different but it allows you to see the week as a snapshot of sessions. 

We will always aim to get outside, whatever the weather, as much as possible so children will really need a waterproof coat each day.

Daily Well Being Activities

Monday – Connect – Make up a scavenger hunt for playtime.
Tuesday – Take Notice- Use your senses when you go outside. What can you see, hear, feel, taste and smell?
Wednesday – Be Active – Jack Hartman Let’s Move (music workout)
Thursday – Keep Learning –
Iam, I have, I can
Friday – Give –  Feed the birds. Think about what you could put outside to feed the birds. Maybe you could design a bird feeder?

    Afterwards, edit the spelling on the additional sheet using a word mat and rewrite the sentences with the correct spellings. 

Reading:

  • Read as part of a group. Look at front cover details and explore making predictions, using phonetic knowledge to decode unknown words and to extend vocabulary. Read aloud and look at increasing fluency and use discussion as a group to discuss comprehension.
  • In reading groups, continue to continue on phonic and CEW recognition gaps identified.

Whole Class – Planned story sessions each day.
