This week in Year 1 we will be:
- Finishing writing the words to go with our pictures about our Wonderful World. We will then be turning all of this work into a little film.
- Learning to read 4 phoneme words, but this week the double consonants will be at the start of a word. (Words like glad, crab, flat etc)
- Continuing to learn how to spell our tricky words, remembering our "top tips" for spelling. (See the bottom of this blog for the words/top tips)
- Sharing and discussing the story "Ten Things I Can Do To Help My World" and thinking about what we can do, writing a pledge to make changes.
- Thinking about our World and how the changes we make or don't make can have an impact on wildlife.
- Using ordinal numbers in our Maths sessions and solving problems using a number line.
Phase 2 - I, no, go, to, the
Phase 3 - he, me, we, be, she, was, my, her, you, they, are, all
Phase 4 - so
Here are our top tips:
We are learning that if we can remember how to spell no and go then we can also spell so.
We are learning that if we can remember how to spell he then this helps us with me, we, be and she.
We have learnt that me has an "e" but my has a "y" (Saying e as in bee and y as in why)
We are learning that the tricky part of her is with the er sound, we need to remember that it is "better letter" not "nurse with a purse"
We are learning that are is ar like "start the car", don't forget the "e" for the engine!
We are learning that you sounds like an "oo" but ends with a "u" (Saying u as in you)
We are learning that they is "the" with a "y" (Saying y as in yak)
We are learning that all is where a has all the l's
Finally, we are learning that was is was not woz!
It would be fabulous if the children could have a go at spelling these words at home too.
Many thanks for you continued support,
Miss Wakefield
