Year 1 Orange Class
Teachers: Mrs Sinfield and Mrs Cook
Our topic this term is focusing on Space and our key question is 'Who was the first person to walk on the Moon?' To launch our Space topic we are inviting Year 1 to come to school dressed as an astronaut or an alien on Tuesday 10th January- we will be enjoying a morning of space themed activities.
Knowledge Organiser
Each term, we produce a knowledge organiser to explain the key areas of the topic we will be focusing on. A knowledge organiser is a document that contains key facts and information that children need to have a basic knowledge and understanding of a topic.
Most knowledge organisers will include:
- the essential facts about the topic, usually laid out in easily digestible chunks
- key vocabulary or technical terms and their meaning
Knowledge Organiser Term 3- Space
Science Knowledge Organiser Term 3- Materials
Homework
Homework grids are in the children's homework books. The children can choose to do as many of the activities as they wish. They can hand their homework in at any point in the term- we love to see what they have been doing at home.
Please read with your child 5 times a week at home- it is vital to the development of their reading that they practise the Phonics skills that they learn at school by applying them to their reading at home regularly.
The children will bring home a weekly Phonics newsletter so that you know what stage they are at with their learning.
If you have any queries please come and ask us, we will try our best to help!
PE is on a Friday-Please ensure that your child has their PE kit, including plimsolls, in school every week.
