Weekly Update 15.9.23
Posted: Sep 14, 2023 by: K Atkinson (k.atkinson) on: Pear Tree Class Blog
Another week has flown by. The children have amazed me with how well they have settled into Year One and how well they are following our new classroom routines; well done Pear Tree!
In maths the children have continued learning about numbers within 10. The children have learnt to represent numbers to 10 in different ways and are beginning to recognise numbers as words as well as numerals and pictures.
In English we started reading 'Katie in London'. The children made predictions about the plot of the story, using the front cover and blurb. This week we have focused on using phonics to spell unfamiliar words.
In PE we are learning how to throw beanbags and balls both underarm and overarm. Just a reminder that the children need to have earrings removed or come to school with earrings taped over; we are unable to put tape or plasters on earrings in school.
We have also started exploring different pencil techniques as part of an introduction to art and the children experimented with blending different colours with varying degrees of pressure.
Enjoy the weekend and I will see you again on Monday.
