Hello Rabbits and welcome to Year 1!

I hope you have had a wonderful summer at home with your family and friends. I am looking 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 Rabbit!

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

If you have any questions please find me in the playground at the start or end of the day.

Mrs Lesser

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, but we do     use them for Guided Reading during the week.

* Also, please make sure your children's jumpers are clearly labelled and that they have a named water 

   bottle in school every day.
