This week in year 1, we are reading the book
'Rapunzel'
by Bethan Woollvin
Click on the book cover to listen to the story.
Golden-haired princess Rapunzel is kept trapped in her lofty tower by a wicked witch, who lops off locks of her beautiful hair and sells them for her own profit. Can Rapunzel ever figure out a way to escape?
A witty twist on a favourite fairy tale, this bold and funny story removes the handsome prince altogether, making Rapunzel the mistress of her own destiny.
Other fairy tales to read by the same author are...

Year 1 Vocabulary
This term, we will be continuing with our focus on the children's vocabulary and 'Expanding Our Vocabulary' every day. This will involve gathering three new words each week relating to our class text and displaying these in each classroom. We will be teaching the spelling and explicit meaning of the words, using them in different contexts, and encouraging children to use these words in their own vocabulary.
mysterious
Strange, not known or understood.
bold
Willing to take risks, is confident.
cunning
The ability to achieve things in a clever way, often by deceiving other people.
Maths
Our current block of learning in maths is Measurement: Money.
Please see below to get an insight into what we will be learning in maths this week.
