Year 1 Home Learning

If your child is self-isolating due to a family member displaying symptoms, please find attached ideas to support your child at home with their learning. Please note that if your child is self-isolating because they are displaying symptoms, we wouldn’t expect them to complete the tasks if they are feeling unwell.

Happy Harvest from Year 1 🍁🍎🌽

Year 1 have been really busy this week learning all about Harvest. To begin with, we tasted lots of different fruit and vegetables and used our sense of taste to describe them.

Can you remember which one was your favourite? Why?

We looked at some corn which had been harvested from a local field and made our own corn on the cob crafts.

In our Literacy lessons, we created our very own acrostic poems about Harvest. We thought very carefully about the sentences we could use for each line.

Finally, we used Harvest vegetables to bake our own Cheese and Vegetable Muffins! They were delicious! Afterwards, we wrote recipes for the muffins!

Can you remember your instructions? Maybe you could make some more muffins at home!

What a lovely week we have had Year1!  Enjoy a well-earned weekend! 🙂

Information check sheets

Dear Parents/carers

We will be sending home check sheets with children in Years 1-6 to make sure that the information that we hold on our system is up to date. Please ensure that you check through, make any amendments and then sign and return to your child’s class teacher even if there are no changes to be made.

Many thanks

Covid 19 update

Dear Parents/Carers,

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/guidance-to-parents-and-guardians-when-you-should-book-a-coronavirus-test-for-your-child/letter-to-parents-and-guardians-when-you-should-book-a-coronavirus-test-for-your-child

 

We have sent this document out before, but wanted to make sure it reached everyone. We are trying so hard to prevent any positive cases in our school, but we need your help…

Please follow all of the guidelines and in particular –

  • Making sure you are not sending your child/children into school if they are unwell.
  • Making sure they wash their hands before coming in to school and on arrival home.
  • Ensuring your children and you yourselves are socially distancing at the key times of drop off and pick up.

 

Clearly we can not control what goes on out of school, but ask that everyone does ‘their bit’ in trying to keep the virus out of our community and therefore lowering the risk of it getting into our school.

 

Thank you for your continued support.

The importance of breakfast

Morning routines can be frantic and rushed, trying to locate book bags and coats but one aspect which is important not to forget is breakfast.

Research shows that, on average, 2 pupils in every class in England and Wales will arrive at school hungry at least once a week. If a child arrives at school hungry, they lose one hour of learning time a day. Thinking about that over a longer term, if a child arrived at school hungry once a week they would almost 9 weeks of learning time (70 per cent of a term) over the whole of their primary school life.

It is so important that children have a nutritional breakfast before they come to school. A healthy and balanced breakfast can provide the refuelling your child needs to make the most of the day ahead. Where possible, please try and avoid overly sugary cereals (easier said than done we know!). Breakfast foods such as cereals with added iron, wholegrain breads, eggs and raisins are all good sources of iron.

Please encourage your children to have breakfast before coming to school – it really is important!
