We generated adjectives to describe the appearance and characteristics of the Wild Things and used plasticine to create our own character for the story. Here are our terrifying Wild Things:

In maths we have been learning to use a number line to count forwards and backwards from a given number.

In phonics we have been revising the following sounds:

a-e (shape, game)

ai (snail, rain)

ay (day, may)

ou (out, cloud)

ow (brown, cow)

On the website below there are a range of games to play with the children to help practise their sounds.

Next Thursday we will be celebrating World Book Day. The children are invited to come to school dressed as a character from their favourite book. They can also bring in a copy of the book to share with the class. We look forward to seeing all of the different story characters.

Next week it is the turn of the Goldilocks’s table for Show and Tell (Valeri, Levi, Matilda, Lucy, Lenny and Lilly).

We hope you all have a restful weekend,

The Year One Team
