Welcome to 1W

Your class teachers are Miss Wilkin, Miss Sharples and Miss Lowe

Reading

We love to read in 1W. We encourage the children to read every night at home. When they have finished their book, we recommend that you ask them questions about the book. We will change books three times a week. In Key Stage 1 we have a 100 book challenge. Each time your child reads at home, sign their reading record and we will fill in a square on the challenge sheet. Your child will receive prizes the more they read.

We are very happy to speak to you if you have any concerns about your child’s learning.

Autumn 2

Our theme this term is …….. Animal Magic!

We are going to be looking at Animals, including Humans this half term and the children will have the opportunity to find out the different parts of their own bodies and they will be finding out about a range of different animals.  The children will be sorting the animals based on different criteria and will be researching which animals are carnivores, herbivores or omnivores.  It is a really exciting topic and they will be able to take their learning outdoors and see which animals they can find in our local environment around the school!
