Ahoy my hearties!

We had such a treasure-filled day of excitement at Time & Tide Museum yesterday. All of us had lots of fun and enjoyed learning about pirates. 



There are lots of fun pirate themed things to do on CBeebies

In our English lessons we are writing about our trip. It can be hard to remember to use all of our writing skills when we have so many ideas to share. Your children are trying to use:


  • capital letters for the start of sentences
  • capital letters for the start of names
  • finger spaces
  • full stops
  • spell using their sounds
  • spell "tricky" words


This week in PE we carried on learning how to use the space in the hall safely. We used beanbags to throw and catch. Please remember that long hair needs to be tied up and earrings must be covered or removed. 



Our number of the week is three. We have been thinking about what is one more, what is one less, where it sits on a numberline, what it looks like on a dice etc. 

We have begun looking at addition and subtraction, using dominoes to help us.  There are some great games to play online like the mental maths train here

Please come along to our Year 1 Maths Event on Thursday 27th at 2.15. We are looking forward to seeing you and giving you some ideas for enjoying Maths activities with your child. 

If you have any questions, do come and see one of the Year One Team!
