Happy Friday, everybody! Another week has flown by here in Year 1/2 - I guess this is what happens when everyone works so very hard!
We live in eternal hope that the summer arrives soon so would like to remind you on hot days how important it is for the children to bring their water bottle and sun hats to stay safe in the sun. Please apply sun cream to your child in the morning before school. Children can bring in cream to reapply at lunch time but please make them aware that they will need to do this themselves.
Maths Homework
This week we would like you to look at pages 56-57.
For Year 1's this continues to look at days of the week. Again, discuss the order of these measures of time and attach a meaning to each of them e.g. we do PE on Monday, we go to athletics club on Friday.
For Year 2's, this is looking at comparing intervals of time. It is important here to look at how units of time relate. So when comparing 40 minutes with 1 hour we need to know that an hour is 60 minutes therefore longer than 40 minutes.
Below are some games for reinforcing these ideas, scroll down on the page for games relating to time:
Don't forget to keep up all your fantastic efforts with your reading at home as well as either your phonics or comprehension homework books - it will make a huge impact on your child's reading development.
As always, we are available on our Key Stage 1 email. However, we would encourage you to come and see us at the end of the day if there are any issues or questions that you have. Just come down the steps to see us!
Have a great weekend!
Much love
Mr Jude, Mrs Yuille, Mrs O'Connor & Miss Langley
