Year 1 Blog - Starling Class

Hello and welcome to your weekly homework / information blog. I hope you all had a great (sunny!) bank holiday weekend.

*Your 'special homework' this week is linked to our English story 'Where the Wild Things Are'. I will send home a copy of the 'S' map and hopefully your child can share the story with you.

*Spelling activity this week is linked to week 4: /aw/ and /au/ - saw, draw, yawn, crawl, claw, author, August, dinosaur, astronaut, your (tricky word). There are games that you can play on Spelling Shed to link to these words and I have included a wordsearch.

*Please listen to your child read at least 3 times a week. New books will come home with you on Monday and Thursday.  Please send in any books to be returned on Mondays and Thursdays as well so that we can re-stock our shelves (thank you!).

*Try to stay in the green zone on doodle by completing your '5 a day' and your assignments.

We've had a wonderful afternoon at the church in Keyworth today during mini-time travelling. We did 4 lovely activities to help us understand the Easter story - from a musical Easter parade to learning about serving others with a feast, finding out about Jesus as a King and then learning about prayer.

Thanks once more to our brilliant parent helpers who were very hands on and helped drop and deliver us safely. We really appreciate your time.

Today we have been scientists! We have done an experiment  to see if jelly will set if it has different fruits in it. We have been observing it throughout the day and noting down our findings. Tomorrow, the children will see if the pineapple set

Hello,

After a super week with our book week, we have science week to look forward to this week! We have a visit from Jenni @ Wild Things, Keyworth to talk to us about hedgehogs and caring for them through the seasons. Please ensure children have their welly boots in school as well as a warm coat on Tuesday - we will be going outside, whatever the weather!

Science week - please ensure that entries for the competition are in by Thursday morning (thanks, and look forward to finding out the results!)

REMINDER: CHURCH trip - Time Travelling - Tuesday 19th March 12:55pm - 3:05pm. Again, thanks for the additional parent support to help with this visit by walking to and from the church in Keyworth and accompanying us - we now have plenty of parents to help.  We will have an early lunch for this and aim to leave Crossdale just before 12:30pm. There is a payment on SchoolMoney for a contribution towards the resources used at the church.

*Your 'special homework' this week will be in homework books and links to our hedgehog themed visit from Tuesday.

*Spelling activity this week is linked to week 4: /yoo/ and /oo/ sounds spelt u-e: June, rule, rude, flute, use, tube, tune, huge, cute, cube. There will be a spelling activity in homework books plus all words will be on Spelling Shed for you to play games to help learn them.

*Please listen to your child read at least 3 time a week and try to stay in the green zone on doodle by completing your '5 a day' and your assignments. Short and frequent returns to learning really helps to consolidate knowledge!
