Hello Moles and welcome to Year 1!

We hope you have had a wonderful summer at home with your family and friends and we look forward to hearing about the things that you have been doing.

In English we will be using our memory boxes to help us talk about our Summer and we will then use this to write sentences about our favourite parts. We will then use the book 'Lucy and Tom at the Seaside' by Shirley Hughes to write about how characters feel and to think about how holidays have changed.

In Maths we will be learning about Place Value. We will be sorting and counting groups of objects and then counting objects from a larger group of things.

In the afternoons we will be learning about our class animal - the mole!

Then we will be looking at holidays in the past and discovering how they have changed today.

If you have any questions please find us in the playground at the start or end of the day. Miss Benn will be with Moles on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays and Miss Guile on Thursdays and Fridays. 

Miss Benn and Miss Guile 

General reminders:

Our PE day is Friday this year.

Please bring reading books to school every day - we will normally change them on a Monday.

Also, please make sure your children's jumpers are clearly labelled and that they have a named water bottle in school everyday.
