P1 Week Beginning 16.1.23
Homework:
Reading: Children will bring their book in their book bag and the pages to be read will be written in their green reading record. Please sign this to evidence reading has been completed. Some children will come home with a little slip of green words, these words should be learned to support their progress in reading.
Sounds: We are learning ch, sh and th this week. Please ensure your child completes these worksheets as it so important for them to practise their letter formation when writing new sounds.
Burns poetry: The children will perform their chosen poetry to the class on Tuesday 24th January. Please encourage your child to learn their poem with lots of enthusiasm! Those who recite their poem in class will be considered to be in the poetry assembly – there is only one child per class!
Please ensure that your child brings their book bag to school EVERYDAY, as we will be doing reading everyday. They will be kept in school on a Friday, in order to have new homework ready for the following Monday.
P.E will be on Wednesday with Miss Simpson and Thursday with Mrs Lynch.
We are moving onto subtraction with 10 and 20 this week. We are looking at using concrete materials to help us (Numicon, cubes etc.), before moving on to using number lines.
Please never hesitate to get in contact, if you need anything.

🎆 Happy New Year! 🎆
I hope you all had a wonderful and restful winter break and it was so lovely to see the children again this week. I am so impressed by how quickly they fell back into routine, it is like they have never been away. Thank you SO much for all of the lovely cards and gifts, it was far too kind and greatly appreciated.
Just a gentle reminder that children should come to school with indoor and outdoor shoes, along with a suitable jacket for playing outside. P.E kits should be returned to school for P.E. starting again on Wednesday.
We have our second health week this coming week and we are learning about emotions and relationships.
Homework will go out on Monday and will follow the same pattern as before.
Reading: Children will bring their book in their book bag and the pages to be read will be written in their green reading record. Please sign this to evidence reading has been completed.
Sounds: We are learning y and x this week. The children will only have two phonic worksheets to complete as these will go home on Wednesday and Thursday. Please ensure your child completes these as it so important for them to practise their letter formation when writing new sounds.
Burns poetry: The children will bring home two poems on Wednesday and they have to choose one to learn for our poetry recital in class. From this, there is a class winner who then performs their chosen poem at an assembly. The children will perform their chosen poetry to the class on Tuesday 24th January.
Please ensure that your child brings their book bag to school EVERYDAY, as we will be doing reading everyday. They will be kept in school on a Friday, in order to have new homework ready for the following Monday.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Please never hesitate to get in contact, if you need anything.

🌟P1-2 Nativity news 🌟
Nativity mania has hit P1 and P2 and we are so excited to invite families in, once again, to see us perform our Nativity.
Children have been working hard to learn songs, lines and dances and have done amazingly well. Thanks to parents and those at home for helping support learning during this time instead of our usual, traditional, home learning.
Nativity does not come free, unfortunately, so we are asking parents to pay £2 per family to attend the performance. This will cover the licence, some costumes etc. Every little helps.
The performance will be on 12th December at 2pm. Please arrive to school no earlier than 1.45pm, 2 people per family only.
We have sent out letter this week to ask families if they are attending, please return this along with your donation by Friday,
Thanks so Much
Mrs Hinton and Miss Waller
