Pott Shrigley Class 1 2020 - 2021
Miss Millington
April 2020
We were delighted to welcome the children back to school last half term. It was pleasing to see how well they all slotted back into school life so easily. Playing with their friends, interacting within the classroom and taking part in PSHE lessons was paramount to help with the adjustment back to school after nearly three months at home. This continues to be at the forefront as mental health and wellbeing remain a priority for us to help the children thrive not only academically but socially too.
This term, we will be studying The Great Fire of London. To support our learning we will be looking at the book, Vlad and the Great Fire of London. The children will join Vlad the flea as he takes us back in time to 1666. As well as writing diary extracts we will look at Tudor houses and make our own during D&T sessions. We shall also put our bread-making skills to the test!
In maths, we will look continue to revisit place value, addition and subtraction. We will also look at different forms of measurement including length, height, mass and capacity.
Reading remains an important part of the KS1 curriculum with both individual and whole class reading sessions regularly taking place. We would also encourage reading at home for 10 minutes every day as this has a significant impact on children's progress.
PE will continue on Thursday afternoons. On Friday afternoons the children will participate in a range of problem-solving activities with Moorland Adventure. Please ensure that the children have appropriate clothing for both of these days.
As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Miss Millington & Mrs Turner
