Hello everyone..

 

Year 1

Hello Everyone, 

We have had a great first week back and the children have really enjoyed getting back to school routines and learning lots of new skills.

They loved the story of ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears. We had a very busy week and joined in with lots of fun creative activities. We made life sized Goldilocks people. Painted Bear faces for our wall display.

Outside we created a role play bus out of crates, this created lots of turn taking play and sharing which was great to see. 

We did some PE activities in the hall. We used the hoops, balls, balancing and stability activities which all of the children loved and challenged themselves to learn new skills. We also did some material dancing and started to learn how to play Duck, Duck, Goose. 

This week we will be focussing on the story of ‘Elmer’ to recap our colour knowledge. We have some fun things planned, looking forward to a great week of learning challenges. 

Healthy Movers

This week we will be taking part in the activity ‘Whatever the Weather’

This activity supports stability and balance. The skills are: standing, lying, stopping, twisting, lunging, bending and stretching. 

Please keep the ‘Wow’s’ coming in. We will put some into bags this week.The children are learning many new skills that need to be celebrated!  

Home Learning

Can you do a colour hunt around the house?

Can you talk about objects that have wheels?

Can you help to tidy up 5 things you have been playing with?

These tasks are always optional but are great to see the progression of your child's skills and knowledge building.
