Y1 Friday 11th July 2025– Looking Back & Forth
Looking back:
What a lovely village walk we had on Tuesday! Luckily, the weather was lovely and the class were wonderfully behaved. Thank you to our helpers!
In Maths, we have understood the language of before and after and days of the week and months of the year in order. We have learnt to tell the time to the hour.
In D&T and Art, we have used our weaving skills to help us make a weaved tiger inspired by ‘Surprised tiger’ by the artist Henri Rousseau.
Year 1 – Pupils’ Highlights:
√ Using language of before and after and learning the order of days of the week and months of the year.
√ Identifying human and physical features on our village walk.
√ Drawing a journey line based on our village walk.
√ Team games in PE.
√ Weaving using ribbons before weaving a paper tiger in Art.
√ Understanding the story of Sita and Rama in RE.
√ Telling the time to the hour.
Family discussion questions:
- Why does a dolphin have a layer of fat?
- How can you sort coins? What coin has the smallest value? Smallest value
- How do you write a capital a, h and m?
Looking forward:
In Maths we will be telling the time to half an hour and using seconds and minutes to time activities.
As we near the end of Year 1, we will be consolidating our learning across all subjects through quizzes and games.
We will be enjoying our well-earned marble jar treat, too!
Reminders:
- I have sent home reading comprehension and Maths homework on time. Please complete this in pencil. This is the last piece of homework in Year 1- I will send a list of websites next week, in case you want to look at them over the holiday.
- PE this half term is Friday- please wear PE kits on this day.
If you have any questions please ask.
Thanks again for your continued support.
Kind regards and take care
