Date: 5th Nov 2017 @ 10:43am

Hello all :)

I hope that you have had a wonderful half-term. Here is what we are doing in Year One this week:

English	We are writing a recount about our trip to Underwater Street's Imagine That!
Maths	We are learning about efficient ways to count numbers beyond ten and to check that other people's counting is accurate.
Phonics	We are reviewing a few sounds and beginning work in our new groups. Mrs Thomson's group will be reviewing ue (blue glue), ie (a colourful tie) and ou (shout it out). They will be practising 'children', 'little' and 'it's'. Miss Adamson's group will be reviewing ai (snail in the rain), oa (goat in a boat) and ow (brown cow). They will be pracitising 'will', 'now' and 'back'.
Handwriting	We will begin to learn some joins this week.
Science	We will be learning about the weather in preparation for our class trip.
Jigsaw	We will begin our new unit: Celebrating Difference. We are finding out what makes us similar to others in our class.
PE	We are beginning our gymnastics unit.
Reading	Books will be changed on Wednesday, as normal. Children will mostly have new guided reading teachers.
Homework	Please hand in red book bags containing holiday passports on Tuesday.

I look forward to seeing you all in the morning.

Many thanks,

Miss Adamson
