Maths and English learning

Week beginning- 13^th October 2025

English (Drawing club)

This week we look at the text- Vlad and the great fire of London. We will write about the character and setting and go on adventures within the text. We will be writing our own codes focusing on capital letters, finger spaces and full stops.

Maths

We are learning about addition. We will be learning to add by listening to first, then and now stories and finding all the new bonds that make 10.

Labelling Clothes 

PLEASE label all your child's belongings that come into school.

We will always do our best to return all your child's belongings at the end of the day, but it does become difficult if belongings aren't labelled. All of the children's uniform looks similar and are often the same size. When we find clothing with names in, it makes it so much easier and quicker to return it back to the child.

Water Bottles

All children need a named water bottle in school. They will be encouraged to drink this throughout the school day, including outside at break and lunch times.

Snack

Children in Year 1 are offered fruit every day, if you would like your child to bring in a snack for playtime please can it be healthy - fruit, cereal bar, crackers etc. No sweets, chocolate or nuts.

Wellies

We love to see the children playing outside, no matter what the weather! Please bring a pair of wellies to keep in school which the children can use during break and lunch times. 

Reading Folders

Please make sure reading folders come back into school each day with a signed signature that the children have read at home.

Thank you for your support!
