Year 1 Home learning 17.2.22

17th February 2022Ms C Smith

Good morning year 1,

Here is your home learning for today.

English

This week we have been looking at the Lighthouse Keepers lunch.

Today, we want you to listen to the story on the video again and share the story with someone in your house.

 

Your main job is to then add capital letters and full stops to the sentences below. On some paper, write the sentences out and then correct them.

Maths:

This week in maths we have been comparing numbers.

Watch the following video and then complete the worksheet. You can write the number sentences on some paper if you cannot print the sheet. As an extra challenge, see if you can write your own more than less than number sentences.

 

 

Phonics:

In year 1 we work really hard on our phonics and using sounds to help us to read and write. Sometimes there are just some ‘tricky’ words that you can’t use your sounds to help you.

Your job is to write the following words 3 times and then try and use them in a sentence.

Your 3 tricky words-

You

because 

what 

 

example sentence – you are amazing.

 

 

Science

In science, we have been looking at materials. We have looked closely at a range of objects and why a particular material has been chosen .  Your task is to find an object in your house and draw a picture of it.

Under your drawing, tell me: What it is? What it is made from? Why is it made out of that material?

 

Please send any work into the the year 1 email – [email protected]

 

Thank you,

The Year 1 team x

Year 1

The Discovery Museum

14th February 2022J Twigge

This half term we have been learning about the toys Victorian children would play with, the materials they were made from.  We compared these with our favourite toys and looked at the materials they are made from.

As part of our topic we visited the Discovery Museum in Newcastle, we were very excited!

Once we arrived we had a lesson with Amy. She had lots of old toys hidden and we guessed what we though they were… a train, a porcelain doll, tea set and a dog-bear (was it a dog or a bear, we weren’t sure either!)

Then we had time to explore the museum and lunch!

We had a fantastic time!

Biscuit Making in Year 1

1st February 2022Emma Adams

We have enjoyed researching and designing biscuits in DT but best of all was making our biscuits! We were lucky enough to work with our amazing school cook, Linda, who helped us to measure the ingredients and carefully follow her recipe. They tasted delicious!

Seven Stories Visit to Year 1

16th December 2021Emma Adams

In Year 1 we are doing so well with our reading! To celebrate, we had a treat on Tuesday with a visit from Seven Stories.

Seven Stories are the National Centre for Children’s Books. As you can see from our photos, we had a fantastic time listening to new stories. You can find their Visitor Centre and Exhibitions in a beautiful listed building, over seven storeys, in Newcastle upon Tyne.

Animal Antics in Year 1

13th December 2021Emma Adams

What a treat we had in Year 1 on Wednesday! We were visited by a range of wonderful animals to support our learning in Science.

We met:

  • Bracken the Owl
  • Pixy and Dixy the Mice
  • Cornflake the Snake
  • Francine the Bearded Dragon
  • Millie the Millipede
  • Mochi the Hedgehog

We discussed their classification, what food they ate and Steph answered lots of our interesting questions so we could find out even more about the animals!

Year 1 Tuesday 30th November 2021

30th November 2021J Twigge

Hi Year 1,

We hope you’re well and staying warm and cosy! We can’t wait to see you again soon but for today we’d like you to try the activities below.

English

In English, we would like you to write a letter to Santa telling him a little bit about yourself and how you have behaved at school this term. We would love to see your letters when you return to school and we can post them in the magic post box!

Phonics

Have a look at the video which shows the set 2 sounds. Can you join in with them? How many words can you think of which contain these sounds? Make a list wherever you can. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7hRbrpq5Bo

Maths

On Monday we started to look at subtraction. We worked on subtraction stories using ‘First, then and now.’ Today, we would like you to watch the video clip and then complete the worksheet attached. It would help you to have some plain paper for the questions where you need to draw pictures to match the story.

https://vimeo.com/468246766

History

In History, we have been learning about the past. We would like you to choose your favourite toy, draw a picture and write a sentence about it, explaining what it is. Then ask your grown up to tell you about a favourite toy from their childhood, and discuss how they are different.

PE

Have a go at Christmas Cosmic Yoga!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMeKIAEpWxw

 

We’d love to see some of your work from today. Please email it to [email protected]

Many Thanks

Year 1 Staff
