Please make sure you are logging ALL your reading over the Easter Break (a gentle reminder if your reading has not been logged at least 3 times then books will not get changed). Please make sure the children are going on Numbots 3 times a week, homework club will commence after Easter, and the data from both of these allows us to understand who is not completing their homework.

This week we have been working hard on our skills builder project. Mozart class had some fantastic creative ideas of Mario Kart Town, Lego Village, Atlantis and Beehive world, whilst Franklin decided to make a more sustainable city based around our SDG Goal. The children showed exceptional creativity skills, staying positive when things got hard, aiming high to create a fantastic villages, cities and towns. Overall, both classes excelled in teamwork and their communication skills.

We have been working hard on our numbers up to 50. The children will be continuing this work after Easter half term and then moving onto multiplication and division (sharing).

We have a challenge for your children over the Easter Break. We are finding that the children are struggling with their common exception words, therefore we are sending home your children with a pack of the common exception words and they will be tested on a random selection after Easter. It is important that the children can read and write these words.

We wanted to say a HUGE thank you to all of our volunteers this term, for reading and coming in to help with any trips and walks – without your help the children would be unable to do this and we would like to pass on our appreciation.

Have a wonderful Easter Break - the year 1 team!
