Livingstone Life!

Year 1

A huge welcome to all the children and adults in

Year 1.

School life is once again in full swing, with the

children adjusting to life in a new year group and

environment very well.

We have already completed our first topic

‘This is Me!’ where we learnt all about each other

and completed lots of our Jigsaw (PSHE).

Our book focus was ‘Supertato’ which we linked to

our feelings and working together as a team.

During our whole class reading comprehension

session we did lots of

predicting, questioning

and clarifying–

challenge your

children to see if they

remember what those fancy new words mean! In

our English sessions we have been writing about

saving the food from the Evil Peas!

Over the next few

weeks we will be

focusing on a range

of books by Julia

Donaldson and

immersing ourselves in them in our topic

‘Donaldson’s Delights’. Our first home

learning grid will be sent home next week

and has a range of activities to continue the

topic with you at home. Complete which

ever ones you like but make sure you send

items into school for us to display proudly in

our corridor for all to adore!

Handwriting is a focus for us, getting the

children back into writing since the Summer

break. If you need any guidance on how you

can help at home or need a list of the letter

formation rhymes then please ask the class

teacher. The reading room is open now so, if

you haven't already, make sure you pop in

and get your first books.

We have already started our visits over to the Library, Reading Garden and

Play Equipment based at the Junior

school.
