Literacy

This week, we started our new text ‘Man on the Moon’, we have loved using the pictures to learn more about the character ‘Bob’ and enjoyed making predictions. The children have loved sharing their ideas about space. If they have a book on space they would like to bring to share, please ensure their name is clearly marked on the book. This can be fiction or non fiction.

Maths

Our focus in Maths has been consodating our knowledge on place value to 10-20 and then practising application by subtracting by counting back and taking one away. I have set some homelearning on ed shed to support this.

Phonics

Our focus this week, please help your child to find and identify in their reading books

• ‘or’ (work, world, worth, worm, worse)
• ‘oul/ u’ (could, would, should, awful, playful)
• ‘are’ (share, care, dare, square, scare, stare)
• Grow the code – or including au (author) aur (dinosaur) oor (floor) al (walk)

Our new tricky words are once and laugh.

Home Support

Little and often makes a big difference! Please continue reading regularly, practising tricky words, and using the maths fluency cards.

The Year 1 Team
