Weekly news 4.10.19

Another lovely, hard-working week in Year 1.

In Maths this week we have been comparing numbers to 20 using the language 'more than', 'less than' and 'equal' We began by practically building the numbers with Numicon and cubes before writing the numbers in our books. Later in the week, we introduced 'greater than' and 'fewer than'. Some children could tell us how much bigger one number was compared to other by working out the difference.


In English, we have been retelling the entire story of Grendel by using actions. We also made story maps / story boards and wrote words and sentences to go with the pictures.
The children are working very hard to segment the sound in words to help them spel and to use finger spaces correctly. 


Thank you for all your support with the children's home learning activities. The books will be coming home again today ready for a second piece to be completed before half term.

Have  a lovely weekend,
from the Year 1 team.
