Review of the week and home learning
Year 1 Weekly Round Up Friday 15th March
We’ve had great week in Year 1.
We’ve been learning about the weather and have been keeping weather diaries and pretending to be weather forecasters!
For design and technology we’ve made delicious smoothies this afternoon.
In maths we have been learning about measuring length and height, comparing and beginning to use centimetres.
Please remember to keep reading at least 4 times per week and recording this in the Reading Record, lots of the children should now be able to try at least some of the words in the week library book too. Remember the more times your child reads a text, the more fluent they become, aiding their understanding of what they have read.
