Dear Families
We hope that you are all well and that your children are ready and looking forward to returning to school on Monday! We wanted to share some information regarding our project on return to school, however, if you are here looking for Monday's blog, just keep scrolling down and it is just below this one!
Charlie & The Chocolate Factory
We are still planning on covering as much work related to our project as we can in the 3 weeks before Easter. We did mention this just before Christmas but after so much happened (or didn't happen!) since then we'd like to remind you of the 2 aspects of this project that needs parental consent.
In our Art/DT lessons, we will be designing and making our own chocolate creations. We will be taste testing some possible ingredients for this purpose. Obviously, we will take known dietary needs into account but if you have any concerns about this, please let us know via our email.
We would also like to watch the film "Charlie & The Chocolate Factory" (2005) to support our writing in English lessons. This film is certified PG. If you do not want your child to join us in watching it then please let your child's teacher know, again via our email.
New Key Stage 1 Website
We have a new website for KS1! You can access it from the classes tab on the main website or directly using this link:
https://sites.google.com/downhallprimary.com/year1-2
Under the Useful Information tab you will find resources such as phonics mats, high frequency word lists and end of year writing expectations. There is a separate page for each of our projects and information about the work we cover. There is also a direct link to our blog. This is a link to the entire feed so it has all the blogs on it. Please have a look and let us know what you think or if you encounter any problems.
If you have any other questions about the children returning, please just contact us:
We are all very much looking forward to seeing you next week!
Mr Jude, Mrs Yuille & Mrs O'Connor
