It has been a wonderful start to the school year and the children have impressed us by how well they have settled after the summer break.
In English, we have been enjoying exploring the book The Gruffalo. We made stick puppets of the mouse from the story and took them all on a stroll through the deep, dark wood! Lindsay has been teaching the children a song about the Gruffalo too.
This is a lovely website to explore together:

In Maths, we have looked at our number of the week... 1. Can you think of anything there is only 1 of? What is 1 more? What is 1 less? Can you remember how to spell the word for 1?
Why not play on this website together?
Numberblocks!
We also made a graph to show which our favourite characters are from The Gruffalo.
In Topic, the children did a knowledge harvest to see what they already know about pirates. Our topic is called... Shiver me Timbers! We are looking forward to our school trip. Please make sure you have returned all of your forms. Thank you!
This week, we will start our PE lessons. Each child needs a PE bag containing shorts, a t-shirt and a pair of plimsoles or trainers. If your child would like to wear their team colours to show that they are in Snowdon, Scafell Pike or Ben Nevis, then they are welcome to wear the correct coloured t-shirt. Children with long hair need a hair band for P.E and a roll of micropore tape is needed by those with earrings, so that they can be taped over for safety reasons.
If you have any questions or comments, do come and speak to one of the Year One Team.
