Year 1 Friday Blog - 24th April
Date: 19th Apr 2026 @ 7:46pm
Dear parents,
Welcome back to the Year 1 Friday blog!
Each week you will find out what we have been doing in class, our weekly spellings, reminders and lots more!
Every Friday, the blog will be shared with the class to recap our learning and make them aware of their homework.
Moving to online homework has allowed us to become a more eco friendly school.
CLASS WORSHIP
Thank you to everyone who came to watch the children in our class worship. I am sure you all agree that they were fantastic. We are very proud of them for learning their lines and singing beautifully.
Reading books will continue to be changed on a Thursday. Please read both books and ask questions about them.
Please write a note in your child's reading record book when a book has been completed and sign the relevant parent signature box. This allows for an easy change as we know if the book has been read.
The children will have the opportunity to change their library books each Thursday. Please spend time sharing these stories at home and asking about their choices.
Spellings
Please practise your spellings ready for the quiz on Thursday. These are also available on spelling frame.
In Maths we have consolidating our learning about 2D shapes.
In English we started learning about a new story. NoBot - The robot with no bottom! Listen along at home to learn all about Bernard the robot.
Science this week has been all about plants. We went on a hunt around school to identify 'plants' and 'not plants'.
In Art we have started to learn about the artist Paul Klee. We looked at his work 'Castle and Sun' before creating our own version.
RE
Next week, we will be visiting Euxton Parish Church to learn about Baptisms. If your child has been baptised or had a special celebration, please could you email a picture to Mrs Hodges ([email protected]) or send in a copy. We will share these during our RE lessons over the half term.
Have a lovely weekend,
from the Year 1 team
