Year 1 Update – Week 28
This week, the children have continued to explore this unit through the arts by finishing their clay creations with Miss Cassie, exploring dance through the decades, practicing their photography skills with Miss Kannis and putting the finishing touches to their art pieces. They have also been busy finishing their written pieces of work and thinking about how they can present their learning about people’s histories in an interesting way. We look forward to seeing you all next week at the Year One Sharing Day.
Where We Are in Place and Time
Central Idea: Exploring evidence helps our understanding of people’s histories.
The children have been putting the finishing touches to their final pieces of work for Year One Sharing Day and practicing how they confidently share their learning with you next week. They can’t wait to show you all that they have learnt over the past 8 weeks.
Please let your child’s class teacher know as soon as possible if your child will be leaving school early for the Easter vacation. With Sharing Day fast approaching it would very helpful to know if some children will be missing next Thursday.
Next week in Maths we will be reviewing our unit on place value by giving the children the opportunity to make 2 digit and 3 digit numbers using a variety of materials independently.
Mathletics: – There are now some more activities open. Please enjoy supporting your child with these tasks. If your child is not yet logging onto Mathletics independently please support them to do so.
Please help the children to complete the Mathletics tasks that have been assigned to your child. The children can also enjoy Maths Live and play other children live across the world.
This week the children will be preparing for Sharing Day by practising their oral presentation skills. They will be working in groups and with a partner to practice how to present their learning using full sentences and speaking with a clear and audible voice.
