Year One Blog: Dear Diary

This week we have been learning how to write a diary entry. We looked at different diaries and as a class labelled each of the key features. We learnt that diaries have a date at the top of the page, begin with ‘Dear Diary’, are written in the first person past tense, include some descriptive vocabulary and end with ‘Love from’. We wrote diary entries as Beegu, describing her time on Earth. Next week we will making an information page about our planet Earth.

In maths we have been learning about subtraction. We have learnt how to count backwards and draw pictures to calculate how many are ‘left’.

In geography we have learnt about different landmarks around the world. We have loved seeing the photographs of the children at various places, please continue to send them in.

A huge well done to our school councillors Clemmie and Patricio for selling our salt dough decorations as part of the fundraiser for Shelter. Thank you for all of your donations, we will share the total raised with you next week.

This week we have been learning the following sounds:

igh (fly high)

i-e (nice smile)

Attached is the link to the Spelling Shed for the children to be able to revise these sounds: https://play.spellingshed.com/#/login

We hope you have a restful weekend,

Miss Luetchford and Mrs Sharon 🙂
