Notes for Parents
We want your learning time to be an enjoyable experience. Use the different levels to ensure your child is first of all happy and second of all appropriately challenged. Apples provides a basic level of Year 1 learning and Bananas offers a trickier challenge.
Please bear in mind the following key Year 1 writing targets:
Non-negotiables for writing Capital letters Finger spaces Full stops Spelling words using phonics – this means your child‟s spelling is highly unlikely to be perfect! This is what we are looking for when we see your child‟s work Correctly spelt common exception words
Trickier challenges to include is writing where possible Use „and‟ in a sentence Use the suffixes –ed (walked, licked); -er (quicker, smaller); and –est (quickest, smallest) Use exclamation marks Use question marks Use joined handwriting Use adjectives
Reading a book is still a requirement in addition to this timetable – Remember to predict, question, summarise and clarify. Remember to draw upon your phonic knowledge.
Below you will find: 1. Hyperlinks – all websites mentioned in the above timetable with the hyperlinks still active 2. Resources – all resources required for this week‟s Home Learning 3. WAGOLL – examples of good writing 4. STEM Challenge – a tricky challenge for keen mathematicians!
