Class 6 TT Rockstars

Today we are launching TT Rockstars with Year 1. You can download the app for children to create their avatar and explore the game. Please persevere with the game as the children may find it tricky at first and may need your help to work out the answers but please do not play the game for them as it contains an algorithm which will gradually introduce more and more questions as the children’s knowledge increases as well as helping them to embed the facts they already know. Children’s log-in details are the same as their Numbots log-in details and I have sent home a letter with a reminder of this. If you would like to find out more please watch these short information videos.

There is one for adults and one for children.

Any questions please drop me a message.

Have a lovely long weekend

Reading Books Tomorrow (Thursday 13th)

This is a reminder that all children need to return their reading books to school tomorrow as Friday is a training day. Please help us by ensuring all children bring their books each week – even if they have not been read yet.

Unfortunately we are unable to allow children to keep Shared Reading books for an extra week. This is because all books need to be collected in as a set and returned to the reading room for the next group of children to use. If the book is not in school on book changing day this will prompt an email reminder from your child’s class teacher or phonics teacher.

If the book has not been returned by the following book changing day a fine of £3.50 per missing book will be added to your Parent Pay account on this day.

Thank You,

KS1 Team

Crew Rodgers food prep skills

Year 1 split into crews today to participate in a carousel of food preparation skills. In Miss Rodgers’ classroom we experimented with peeling different kinds of fruit and vegetables including cucumbers, apples and carrots. In Miss Schon’s room we used box graters to grate the above ingredients. Finally in Miss Cooper’s crew room we used special knives and learned how to safely chop bananas, peppers and tomatoes using the bridge and claw method. Well done everyone!
