Weekly Update - 19.03.21

Hello again,
It has been another lovely busy week.
This week in maths we have been focusing on counting in multiples. It would be great if you could practise this skill at home. Children in Year 1 need to be able to count forwards and backwards in multiples of 2, 5 and 10. The majority of children in class need to practise being fluent in this, especially above 20. We count up to 50 in 2's and up to 100 in 5's and 10's. If your child is very confident with this, they can practise continuing from a given number or counting in 2's 5's or 10's from another number - for example counting in 10s from 4.
In English we have been very excited to hear that the wolf (from the 3 little pigs) visited Mrs Connolly's house and gave the children some writing to do. We were really happy to help the wolf out and we hope that our letters to the 3 little pigs mean that they know how sorry the wolf is for his actions.
Have a great weekend and we look forward to another jam packed week of learning next week.
Mrs Connolly, Miss Peacock and Miss Birks.
