Great Work Year 1!
In SPaG today we turned into doctors! This morning on her way into school Mrs Stockdale dropped her sentences and they all got very muddled, so our first job was to order the sentence correctly and then spot the word which needed an 'ed' added to the end. We thought about the past and present tense and how the word changes. We also learnt that even though it ends in 'ed' it sometimes sounds like a 't' 'd' or 'id'. Great Work Year 1!

In guided reading this term we have been reading a book called, Look Out, It's a Dragon. This has fitted in nicely to our topic of dragons, princesses and knights. We have daily guided reading sessions where we explore the book. answer questions about it and read it to ourselves and others. It helps us build up the skills we need to be a confident reader and achieve our Year1 reading objectives. We are using great sounding out and are getting very good at reading the tricky words.
Ask me if I can retell what happens in the story to you. If you want to practice some of the skills we have been learning in class at home, try asking some of these questions when reading with your child.
Look out for our reading buddies who will be in class after half term. In science this half term we have been learning about Materials. We have learnt about naming, describing, comparing and investigating them. We have learnt some new key words like waterproof, absorbent, opaque, translucent. We will conclude our topic next week by carrying out an investigation to find out which material is suitable for a dragon's home. We will be predict, test and evaluate. |
