Return Phonics Books in Book Bags Tomorrow

Good evening KS1 grown ups,

Just a reminder for all children to return their Book Bags tomorrow please, and children who have had phonics books MUST return these tomorrow – if not unfortunately there will be a charge for the phonics books.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Poppy Art Work

In 1LI today, we have been working hard to create beautiful poppy artwork. We have used techniques that all the teachers were recently taught, by Joyce from Buzeman Art, to recreate poppies using different art techniques. We used pastels to create a background representing the changing colours of the battlefields. We then used string and acrylic paint to recreate the poppy stems, before using pointillism to create the poppies.

Mrs Ogle was so impressed she awarded the whole class Headteacher’s award stickers!

Change of PE day for this week

Good evening and apologies for the late notice.

Freckle

Freckle is an online learning platform that allows students to independently practice Maths. This is an optional homework that can help children improve their fact recall.

Freckle continuously adapts to each child’s individual skills, so each student is getting the appropriate challenge, whether they’re working at, above, or below the expected level.

Children can practice in Freckle on their own for a certain amount of time every day or week. Even if the teacher doesn’t give you specific instructions, your child can access Freckle and practice on their own at any time.

There are several different, age-appropriate and skill-level-appropriate maths activities that students can practice independently.

This week the children will bring home details of how to log onto Freckle. If you have any questions, please speak to a member of the team.

Working Hard this Week!

In English we have looked at nouns and verbs around our new text ‘Where The Poppies Now Grow’.

In expedition we were historians and have learned about Remembrance day, the significance of Poppies and recited Flanders Field poem.

In Maths we’ve learned about addition and number bonds within 10. We enjoyed problem solving games in PE.

In We Care Wednesday Crew we understood the importance of staying safe online. #LovePlover

An amazing week in 1LI!

This week our children have worked hard with their literacy to understand common and proper nouns, and verbs in order to use these in their writing.

We enjoyed learning our poem “In Flanders Fields.”


We are also learning the names of 3D shapes, please support this at home with finding household objects which are cylinders, cubes, cuboids, cones, pyramids and spheres.

We are greatly enjoying our new phonics and the reading books!

1LI PE Monday

Monday will see the school photographer visiting. Please could we ask that children in 1LI wear school uniform on Monday.

Children will then be able to get changed before PE.
