Weekly Update 16.9.2022
Posted: Sep 15, 2022 by: K Atkinson (k.atkinson) on: Pear Tree Class Blog
Another busy week has come to an end in Pear Tree Class. The children have worked so hard this week and are becoming familiar with all the Year One rules and routines. They have all especially enjoyed playing on the new trim trail in our playground.
In phonics the children have learnt to read the 'ay' sound in words (e.g. 'day') and we have spoken about when to use the 'ai' or 'ay' spelling in words. The children enjoyed going on an 'ay' word hunt around the classroom.
In maths we have done lots of work on counting up to 10 and representing the numbers to 10 in different ways.
In English we have focused on the book 'Owl Babies' and the children have been writing lists to describe the owls from the story.
Another highlight of the week was art. We are learning about the sculptor Andy Goldsworthy and all the children created their own sculpture using clay inspired by nature.
I will see you again on Tuesday 20th September,
Miss Atkinson
