Year 1 Learning Term 3, Week 4

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. 
  • Every child needs to bring their book, book bag and reading record into school everyday
  • Click here to find out about our whole school reading incentive called Read for the Stars.
  • Please remember to read the phonetically decodable reading book with your child everyday. Reading the same book daily for several days helps to develop fluency and embed phonic knowledge and skills. Please write a positive comment about your child’s reading in their log book everyday. You can click here to access the blog post about reading at Henleaze Infant School and click here to view some of the FAQ’s. Please remember to return your child’s books every Monday as they will swap them for new ones on Mondays.
  • We will always aim to get outside, whatever the weather, as much as possible so children will really need a waterproof coat each day.

English

Text: The Three Little Pigs

Phonics: Phase 5a – Mastery
Information for Sounds and Words Books:

CEW to read and spell: put are where was they he  have  saw  threw  

Sess 1 : Read the story of the Three Little Pigs. Children to act out the story thinking about what the characters may be thinking and feeling. Think of adjectives to describe the characters at different points in the story.
Sess 2: Create a story map with the main events from the Three Little Pigs story. Add adjectives to describe parts of the story onto the story map. Use it to orally retell the story.
Sess 3: Use the story map created yesterday to write the story of the Three Little Pigs. Try to use as much detail as possible and ensure that the story has a clear beginning, middle and ending. 
Sess 4: Write dictated sentences that include sounds taught this week and words commonly misspelt. 

  • Once upon a time there were three little pink pigs.
  • The three little pigs were afraid of the wolf. 
  • The brown wolf was looking for the pigs. 
  • Come out from where you are hidden shouted the wolf. 

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


Sess 5 Handwriting: Begin with practising different handwriting patterns. Then use correct formation for graphemes learnt  this week and CEWs. Finish with a dictated sentence- The big bird flew into the class and saw the children doing phonics.

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.
