Welcome back, everyone! It has been so lovely to have you all back with us. We are so thrilled with the positive learning behaviours that each child in Year One has shown over the week.

This week we have been extremely busy learning and performing ‘We’re Going on a Bear Hunt,’ by Michael Rosen. You can watch his performance which inspired us here… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gyI6ykDwds We suddenly realised today that some of the pages are missing from our copy of the book and so next week we will be planning and writing them.

In Maths, we’ve been practising counting all the way up to 100. We’ve used our knowledge of place value to solve tricky missing number problems. Perhaps you can play, ‘I’m thinking of a number…’ with your families. For example, I’m thinking of a number that is greater than twenty but less than thirty. It is even. What could it be? Another great activity to reinforce place value is Snakes and Ladders.

Thank you to those who have brought in their puppet to share with us. We’ve had great fun looking at them in class this week and it was great to feel your support at our Puppet Parades on Monday and Thursday.

Have a wonderful (albeit wet and windy!) weekend. Take care,

Team One.
