This week we were learning to use our sounds to write words and sentences. We read the story ‘If I Built a Car’ and we talked about what our cars would be like if we could build a car. We wrote sentences to describe our cars using a capital letter, full stop and finger spaces. We had lots of good ideas!
This week we were finding out about different ways in which transport has changed from past to present. We looked at pictures of transport from the past and sorted different types of transport correctly in order onto a timeline. We played with our train set and made tickets, used our cars and car repair sheets to be mechanics and played in our transport museum.
This week our new sounds were ‘sh’ and ‘ch’ and our new common words were ‘go’ and ‘we’. We made ‘sh’ with shells and play dough, used our Ipad to help us write ‘sh’ words, played Roll & Read to practise reading ‘sh’ words and wrote ‘sh’ words and sentences. When learning ‘ch’, we drew ‘ch’ pictures, labelled ‘ch’ pictures, played ‘Cheeping Chicks’ on Education City and wrote ‘ch’ words and sentences.
This week we have been learning to sequence numbers forwards and backwards to 20. We have been finding missing numbers on a number line, ordering our number pebbles from 20 to 0, playing sequencing and ordering games on the smartboard and making numbers to 20 using tens and units.
In numeracy and maths, we have also been learning to sort objects & pictures in different ways. We sorted information on a Carroll Diagram in our workbooks. We also sorted shells, loose parts and toys according to their size, colour or shape and we were able to explain to Miss Harrison how we had sorted the items.
This week we also won ‘Class of the Week’. Thank you very much for reading our blog post and we hope that everyone has a lovely weekend.
P1A and Miss Harrison 🙂
