Team aire, wharfe & ouse (Year 1 & year 2)

Good afternoon,

WOW! What a brilliant Learn Through Week we have had ending with World Book Day. The children have had a great week learning about influential people including Rose Ayling-Ellis and Fury the Gladiator. We have learnt how deaf people communicate using BSL. We have learnt the song 'proud' so look out for that on our instagram page!

Reminders next week - 

Tuesday - Parents evening 

In Maths, Year 1 will be looking at doubling and halving.

In Year 2 , recapping previous learning. 

In Writing, the children will be writing their own sey of instructions ensuring they include imperative verbs. 

Changing books:

To support with reading in school we are changing the day we are sending new books home. Please can book bags and reading records be sent to school on THURSDAYS. 

REMINDERS:

This half term, our PE days will be Monday and Friday. 

HOMEWORK:

Your children will bring home their reading books on Thursday. We ask that you read with your child 3x a week and write in their reading records each time you read.

The children who have read 3x, will be giving a raffle ticket to be in with a chance to win a prize.

We know reading is essential for your child/ren and we thank your support with this.

Every Friday, Year 1 will now be bringing home a phonics home learning sheet looking at sounds that we have covered throughout the week. Any extra practise would really support your children's reading journey. 

For Year 2, we would like them to practise their additive facts to support addition and subtraction, they will be coming home with a sheet to help with this today.  

Below is a list of KS1 common exceptions words. These are a list of words that the children need to be able to read and write - although this isn't homework as such, it may be useful to practice these at home. Across Key Stage 1 we are working really hard to improve spelling and handwriting so any support with this at home would be greatly appreciated. 

Any questions, please come and ask us.

Thank you for your continued support, 

Team KS1
