Aurora Class

Hello everyone, below you will find resources, plans and activities to support your child's learning during this time. 

Daily timetable 

 

In year 1 we recommend sticking to a timetable each day. This will hopefully help ease the transition for your child and keep some stability and normality. Below I have listed roughly what our daily timetables look like:

 

8.30-9.00 - Reading

9.00-9.30 - Daily exercise (see joe wicks PE video on YouTube)

9.30-10.20 - English work

10.20-10.45 - Phonics 

10.45-11.00 - Have a break and snack 

11.00-12.00 - Maths

12.00-1.00 - Lunch 

1.00-1.20 - Handwriting (practise forming letters correctly)

1.20-2.45 - Foundation curriculum lesson

2.45-3.00 - Read them a story 

 

We hope this helps! :-) 

Hi all, I have attached a document which outlines the end of year objectives that we aim to meet for Year 1 for each subject. Please use this document as a guideline as every child's learning is different and unique. It should help you see the expectation we have for our Year 1s and what we aim to achieve by the end of Year 1. (Taken from the Government national curriculum document)

Below is a link that opens a Virtual Bookbag, the Collins e-books follow the reading scheme we have in school and allows the children a hub of books to enjoy. Simply click the link, enter your details and start reading!

Children learnt the story of ‘We’re going on a bear hunt’, they made binoculars and went in search of the bear around the school grounds and forest area.

Last week children had a visit from the firefighters. They got to learn all about the fire truck, uniform and what the firefighters do. Children were super excited to get to try out the helmets and sit in the back of the fire truck.

Aurora class have been super excited to receive their caterpillars. After learning the story ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’, children are keen to observe them grow and change. Keep an eye on Tapestry and Twitter for caterpillar updates.

Aurora class enjoyed their Science lesson on Static Electricity this week. They got to explore how the balloons stuck to them and also giving the balloon faces a beard with the mixed spices. Children loved seeing how it worked.
