Week beginning 15 June 2008

 Dear Parents of Children in Year 1,

This is what your child (ren) will be learning this week. 

 

English

In English this week we will continue to revise work done so far.  The children will not be bringing Stage readers home this week but may take books from the classroom to read.  There will not be a spelling test this week either.  For writing we will be looking at different forms of writing which will include a film review and letter writing.  You can help at home by taking your child for a visit to the Post Office to buy some stamps and it will be a good idea to write a loved one a letter and post it to them instead of using the conventional email.

Arabic

This week we are going to revise the work we have covered and read stories. We will study the Arabic letter which begins the words (y) in Arabic- yad which is hand and yasmin which is jasmine.

 

Maths

In Numeracy this week we will be revising adding and subtracting and will continue with our introduction to tables.  You can help at home by counting with your child in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s.
