Enjoy looking at photos of our learning last week in Year 1 and talk with your child at home.
This Week’s Learning
We read our new class text ‘Katie in London’, a story of magical sightseeing tour of London. The children were captivated by the Lion in Trafalgar square taking Katie and her brother around London. The children spent time thinking of questions they would like to ask the Lion about the adventure.
In Maths, the children were introduced to the symbols for ‘greater than, less than and equals’
In our outdoor learning and Science the children collected Autumn leaves to make leaf crowns.
Week Starting 5th October
This week we will be retelling key parts of ‘Katie in London, using time connectives.
In Maths we will be practising using the concepts of ‘greater than and less than’
Please keep sending photos of families and of something that is special to your family, the children are very keen to share.
Wishing you all a lovely weekend!
