YR1 Looking Back & Forth 11.9.26

We have had a super first full week of Year 1!

Looking back: 

• We started to look at our first English text 'Paper Planes' and explored the den that the children had left behind in our classroom!
• We sorted objects in maths by colour, shape and size. 
• We practised counting objects using 1-1 correspondence. 
• In phonics we revisited phase 3 sounds including ai, ee, igh and oa.
• We learnt about the parts of our body in science.

Children's highlights:

• I enjoyed playing with the magnetic tiles.
• I liked using the cotton buds to paint pictures.
• I loved the new Gruffalo Granny story!
• I liked threading beads to make patterns.
• I liked sorting objects into hoops in maths.

Looking forward:

• Next week we have a Forest School session on Monday afternoon!
• We will design and use adjectives to describe our own paper planes in English.
• We will count objects from a larger group in maths.
• We will explore our 5 senses in science. 
• We will continue to revisit phase 3 sounds in phonics.

Well done on another succesfull week Year 1! You are are settling in and adjusting to Year 1 life brilliantly!
