► MATHS
Before we begin today's lesson, we are going to have a flashback Friday to keep some of the skills we learnt in the Autumn term fresh in our brains. Click on the link below to go to the form. Remember to put your name so Miss Martin knows who has done the work.
BLUE WORK - back 1 step challenge
GREEN WORK - regular challenge
PURPLE WORK - forward 1 step challenge
These levels of differentiation, for some pieces of learning, will ensure that your child can access teaching and learning that is pitched correctly for them. If you are not sure which colour to do then please email Miss Martin to check.
► GOLDEN TIME
On a Friday afternoon in Year 1 we have GOLDEN TIME!
I think you will agree with me when I say that this week has been very different to the normal weeks at school, but more than ever I think you have deserved your golden time. Play, be creative, make things, dress up, tell jokes and let your imagination run wild.
Don't forget to send Miss Martin your pictures or videos on SEESAW!
I really hope you have been enjoying the stories this week with Miss Martin and George, but please remember to keep reading to your grown-ups at home. Remember to record all your fantastic reading in your yellow reading diaries so Miss Martin can see when we come back to school and maybe if you have read enough you will get a reading certificate! You could even send Miss Martin a video of you reading your book or some pictures of you reading as she would love to see!
If you would like to change your school reading books, please email Miss Martin and we can arrange a day and time that is suitable to come and drop your old books off and to collect some new ones. Alternatively, please remember you can go to Oxford Owl and read lots of great books on there for free! You can log in by :
username : best
password : class
Click here to take you to the website : Oxford Owl for School and Home
Or alternatively you can read some phonetically decodable comics online.These can be found at Decodable comics (phonicsplaycomics.co.uk)
Happy reading!
