Home Learning:

We are disappointed that we are unable to come together for learning right now but we are excited to continue to work together to provide learning opportunities for all the of the children. We are looking forward to seeing all of your fantastic work! We will be updating the class page with new teaching ideas and work for your child to complete each week. We will also be adding the work to seesaw to enable you to access the worksheets from a device. 

Zoom: 

Each day one of the Year 1 teachers will be teaching 2x 40 minute zoom lessons (one in the morning and one in the afternoon). We would love to see as many of the children as possible each day as it will allow your child to have vital teaching time and to go over the learning for the day. 

Joining instructions and reminders will be sent out via parent mail and seesaw each day so please keep an eye out for this. 

In order to make sure siblings in different year groups are able to access their lessons as much as possible the zoom calls will be on a rota as follows: 

Keeping in touch: 

We will continue to use seesaw to keep you updated and for you to contact us with any questions or support that we can give you. We would love to see the fantastic work that your child has produced via seesaw and this will allow us to add comments and give feedback. We will also being using purple mash to set activities that your child can try. 

If you are struggling to access the app for any reason please contact the school office and we can get you online as quick as possible. 

Home reading: 

Reading every day is a crucial part of our learning in Year 1. We would encourage you to read every day with your child where possible. Apps like reading eggs and bug club are great ways for your child to access reading easily. Please let us know if you are struggling to access any of these sites.

Spring Term (2nd Half)

Spring has Sprung!

Well done for working so hard during lockdown and doing so well with your home learning. We have loved seeing you all on zoom and at school, for those of you in, and have enjoyed seeing all of your learning posted on Seesaw. We are really looking forward to brighter, longer days ahead next half term in our ‘Spring has Sprung’ topic. In Science and Geography, we will be learning about seasonal changes and weather, including looking a weather symbols. In English, our first story book will be The Day the Crayons Quit on the run up to World Book Day on Thursday 4th March. In Music, you will be making your own instruments and learning about notation. We will be finishing our Coding work in Computing and then moving onto creating an animated story on Purple Mash. In Art and Design, we will be doing some sketching, linked to our whole school ‘Big Idea’, and then looking at sculpture. In PSHE, we will be learning about how to keep safe online, followed by road safety and keeping safe around medicines. In R.E., we will be discussing ‘belonging’ and looking at Christian stories together. Have a good rest over half term and we look forward to seeing you again virtually on Monday 22^nd February.
