'Life Before the Internet'
Welcome to Year 1
We will be sharing lots of photographs of all our fabulous work on our Twitter class page. Follow us @ HolyFamilyL8_1B @HolyfamilyL8_DH
We hope you continue to enjoy looking at all the wonderful things we will be doing in class on our Twitter.
We would like to welcome all our new children and families, we look forward to learning and laughing together.
This half term, we will be exploring what life was like before the internet, thinking about the 1980s and the decades that followed. How did we manage before the internet, mobile phones, satnav, 'Walkmans', VCRs and microwaves? If anyone has any useful 'artefacts' we'd love to see them.
In addition, we will begin our investigation of the seasons and changes in the weather, visiting Princes Park to identify signs of Autumn.
We will be reading different versions of
'The Three Little Pigs'
to help to get us writing, alongside other non-fiction texts which support our labels and captions theme. Through 'Talk for Writing' the children will be writing their own labels and captions.
Year 1 Phonics Check begins on Monday June 8th, 2020
Why not take a look at Jack Hartmann on YouTube and practise 'Count to 100 and get fit!' as well as 'Number Bonds to 20'- we'll be using it in class regularly.
Our PE day is Thursday. Please come in PE kits that day.
Homwork is sent home on Thursday and is due in by the following Wednesday. Reading books are changed on Friday. Please remember to read at home every night - this shouldnt just be a school reading book!
