Hello everyone!

Welcome to the P1 class blog! Thank you for responding to our calls regarding your contact details and photo consent – our blog will now be updated weekly with details and photos of our learning and any new information.

What a fantastic start to the term! The children have been busy making new friends and catching up with old friends from nursery that they missed so much! We have been so proud of how well they have settled into their new environment.

We have been learning how to follow our class and school rules and who to ask for help. We have been learning how to cooperate and work as team.

We have been learning how to look after ourselves and others by washing our hands, changing our shoes and putting on our jackets. We even learned how to put on our waterproof suits and wellies so that we could explore the outdoor area and jump in muddy puddles! We went on a treasure hunt to find different things in the outdoor environment – have you seen all our new super cool murals?!

We have been learning a lot about each other and ourselves through our ‘All about Me’ Topic. Painting self portraits, measuring each other, labelling parts of the body and talking about what makes us unique.

We have been looking at patterns, patterns in the classroom and and patterns outside. We have been using concrete objects to create our own repeating patterns!

 

We have been learning to recognise and order numbers 0-10.

In Literacy we have been learning how to recognise rhyming words and how to continue a rhyming string. We have also started learning our Jolly Phonics sounds! This week we are learning the sounds ‘s’ and ‘a’.

Check out the next blog for our Termly Overview Map which will explain everything we are learning about this term!

Thank you!
